Last night, Faelan requested a song about "broken glass." Joel figured out that that would be "Papa's Going to Buy You a Mockingbird."
I just learned that my father's father loved P. G. Wodehouse's novels, and that my greatgrandmother's little sister Margaret, known as Auntie, was sixteen years younger than her, went to college in Abilene, married a Dean and moved to Old Glory, Texas, which was originally a German settlement which got it name because its founders wanted to be sure people knew they were loyal to the USA, seeing as they moved there during one of the World Wars.

This is the second time I've heard a reference to someone loving PG Wodehouse novels in as many days--and I'd never heard him referred to ever before in my life before now. Obviously i need to investigate...lol
p.s.--thanks for your kind words about my art on the Bluegrass Etsy blog--you're one of the people who inspired my latest blog post.
