A Rookie's Guide to Twain Country: For Twain, Everyday Was Valentine's Day

A Rookie's Guide to Twain Country. Adventures in Chemung County Since 2011. Tuesday, February 14, 2012. For Twain, Everyday Was Valentine's Day. In the spirit of Valentine's, I thought I'd impart what I believe is a lesser-known fact about our buddy Samuel Clemens. Something he isn't remembered for as much as his many famous works in the genres of humor, adventure, and social commentary and criticism:. The object of his affection, Livy Langdon, at 24. And then he fell in love with her. He was traveling o...

A Rookie's Guide to Twain Country. Adventures in Chemung County Since 2011. Thursday, August 25, 2011. Girls DO Just Wanna Have Fun. During a recent stop at The Christmas House, I ran across these:. Some of the greatest holiday characters of all time (I'm partial to The Bumble and Yukon Cornelius, myself). I've spent twenty-eight out of twenty-eight consecutive Christmases watching them. (Plus listening to my father's yearly rendition of "Silver and Gold."). Ah, what the heck:. Even an upside down tree!

A Rookie's Guide to Twain Country. Adventures in Chemung County Since 2011. Wednesday, August 29, 2012. I've been doing a heckuva lot of card buying lately. 'Tis the season. Weddings, bridal showers, baby showers - and that's on top of the regular summer anniversaries and birthdays. If I never saw another twenty cards featuring jokes about squirrels or rednecks, it'd be too soon. In any case, here's the place that saved me from that madness:. 1 The Card Club. Plus, for all those "Blergh, forgot day, have...

A Rookie's Guide to Twain Country. Adventures in Chemung County Since 2011. Friday, December 23, 2011. Home for the Holidays. Behold what I've affectionately termed my "Charlie Brown Christmas Tree":. But then my mother helped me put it together, and broke out with the classic line from "A Charlie Brown Christmas" when Linus realizes Charlie Brown's tree isn't so bad after all. "Maybe it just needs a little love.". So, I decided to keep it around awhile longer. The Near Westside Neighborhood Association ...

A Rookie's Guide to Twain Country: A View From the Top
http://marktwaincountry.blogspot.com/2011/03/view-from-top.html
A Rookie's Guide to Twain Country. Adventures in Chemung County Since 2011. Friday, March 18, 2011. A View From the Top. I've always enjoyed the Irish connections that are drawn from my first name. Not only does it give me a ton of opportunities to talk about "Gone With the Wind" (which I've seen an almost incomprehensible number of times for any film, never mind one that's four hours long), but once I even ran across an older gentleman who had been to the actual Hill of Tara in Ireland:. I went during t...

A Rookie's Guide to Twain Country. Adventures in Chemung County Since 2011. Friday, July 13, 2012. Most locals know that the Corning Museum of Glass is a quick hop, skip and jump away from Chemung County, and I'd wager a guess that the majority of them, at one point or another, have probably stopped by themselves and/or brought family and friends to see it. I mean, it's an impressive museum. The gift shop alone is worth the trip. Took just a smidge longer than expected. The experience is pretty easy to s...
