Joanna Well Pammy Jo, I guess you'll have to tell them. Ruth had the correct answer earlier but she seems to have deleted it! πŸ₯Ί

I'm not telling, but am going to give a hint so somebody else gets a chance:

The author was also a poet and a Boston physician. Does anybody have a guess now?

Nope. More hints...He attended Harvard and Dartmouth, he had 3 children and he was friends with Longfellow. His son served in the Civil War and became more famous than his father.

Pamela | 2209 comments Well, then we'll wait for Ruth. We are supposed to have severe storms all day, so I won't be online much. We had them yesterday, too. There was a very close lightning strike and it shook the house and we saw the bolt come all the way to the ground. Sparks flew and everything. It was across the street and I don't know what it hit. Anyway, I always unplug my electronics when the storms get severe.πŸŒ©βš‘β›ˆ I can't wait for some nice, clear cool weather. This Summer has been awful! πŸπŸŒ»πŸ‚πŸ€

Oh wow!! I love storms, but never saw lightning that close before! We're supposed to get a lot of rain this afternoon, which is welcome. It's been so hot and dry here this summer, but it was 36 this morning!

Hi Pammy,
Good Heavens! What a week!
That is frightening.
Are you all doing all right?
A while back we had thunder that shook
the house, later lightening bolt followed by
a loud thunder seemed to hit the middle of
the street. My poor sister, who was in a
deep asleep on the lounge in front of the
window, sprinted across the room in two
seconds.
Please send the storm our way!
πŸŒ¬πŸŒ¨β˜€πŸŒ‘πŸ™
I'm so sick of summer.

Hi Meg,
I also love storms, they are so infrequent in
these parts. We usually open the windows
to the winds to blow through, it's so refreshing.
36Β°πŸ™ˆSob! Not until January.

Wow, I thought you all would get a lot of storms with all that heat and humidity! Some years we get a lot, but not this year.

Joanna So Ruth, did you delete your answer on purpose? We've all been waiting! 🧐

Yes, I have been too fatigued to
keep up so I deleted my answer.
In fact, I won't be participating
very much for this reason.
