THE 2025 EXHIBITION OF THE “SPIRIT OF 1776” SUFFRAGE WAGON ON LONG ISLAND. . . 

By now, you will have heard about the approval granted by Jennifer Lemack, curator at the New York State Museum in Albany, New York, for the Long Island Museum in Stony Brook, NY to exhibit the wagon used by Edna Kearns and others to win the right of NYS women to vote starting in 1913.

How have I been doing with the three life goals that I have identified? Body, mind, and spirit? Stay tuned. In the past, I said…try anything. Now I am asking myself if there is anything I have forgotten? I think that sums things up. I am working on different options for my future?

WHAT I HAVE LEARNED AND WHAT I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN. . .
