Recently I went by a place called Beechwood Hills.Oddly I had been that way many times but it wasn't until that recent time that I noticed it.

In the 'Carpenter's Spottings/Always Something There To Remind Me' file ... This summer I have passed 2 places that fit our category. The first was HORIZONS TRAVEL, the second was HEATHER GREENS.

Hi there,
Horizon can't fit in so many names for my Carpenterville and I thank you all for your great ideas. I am trying not to use a name twice and since I used Horizon Hospital a long time ago and it fits so well, unfortunately I am not using Horizon again but I will keep that in mind should the hospital "relocate".
Next, I was at an auction on Wednesday and there was a box lot with a bunch of 45's in it and of course I had to bid (and won) on it because it had "Hurting Each Other" in it with picture sleeve and all. I already have this very same one but it doesn't matter, I HAD TO HAVE IT!!
Anyway, that was my most recent spotting.
Have a great day everyone!

When I have time, I often watch the television quiz show "Jeopardy", and a couple days ago The Carpenters were the answer to a question (or more precisely considering the quirks of the game, the question to an answer.) The category was "Hits Of The 70's", and the answer was something to the effect of "They had a big hit with "Close To You." One of the contestants (the ultimate winner that day) correctly identified the group right away. Of interest was the fact that this answer & question was of the lowest possible point value, which means that in the estimation fo the Jeopardy staff, almost everyone would know that The Carpenters hit it big with "Close To You"- I take that as encouraging.

First thing in the morning, I generally check 3 or 4 local newspapers from where I had lived in the past and one of them was Binghamton, NY. In today's edition, the obituary section (sorry, but I have to keep tabs that way too , there was one entry by the name of "Mary M. Carpenter" and oddly enough, her husband's name was "Lynn". I just thought that was interesting and it caught my eye because it is Richard's middle name and also his wife's name. Beaner
