RESEARCH SATURDAY
Saturday Kathy, Val and I were able to host Rose Ann Gingles and her daughter, Joni on Halsell Hill. Rose Ann is researching Lou's research methods as part of her work in a course under Dr. Burns at Texas Woman's University. She is from Ranger and like Lou taught at Cisco College so she feels a lot of empathy with Lou and is interested in her writing and approach to her work. She came well prepared with notes and showed us the inventory list of Lou's papers now ready for research at TWU. I gave them a tour of the house to see Lou's library and the office where she did most of her work the last 24 years.
We were blown away to find that Rose's brother is David Barton who created WallBuilders in Aledo, TX and has been on the Glenn Beck show telling how the founders of our nation were Christians, not the Diests that is the story that has filled our history books for the past 50 years as history has been rewritten to reduce the impact of Christianity on our nation. Rose's daughter worked for Wall Builders for 7 years but recently became a midwife and now practices in Cleburne. That fascinated us because Laurie in France is a practicing midwife with a large practice in Auxerre.
We were able to provide Rose with a lot of information about Lou that isn't in her papers. Kathy prepared a great meal for lunch of chicken and venison enchiladas (two different dishes) along with green bean casserole, corn and spinach (for me). Rose and Joni had brought cookies to go with the fruit salad Kathy had made.
They left after lunch and we napped and went to Cross Plains as reported in the other blog.

Dr.C Rodenberger,
I am back in place, now, and have read Dr. L Rodenberger's first draft, once and am beginning to look over the Let's Hear It! book.
In another blog, you said something about some of Dr. LR's books being for sale. Would the books: Her Story and Let's Hear It! be available, too? I would like to get copies of the books we talked about.
Just wondering,
Rose Ann Gingles
