Zillions of trees, very green and a bit hilly.Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14247515387599954817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483877654474162845.post-38581282476394736612016-03-22T09:03:56.142+11:002016-03-22T09:03:56.142+11:00Trixie lives in a fictional town called Sleepyside...Trixie lives in a fictional town called Sleepyside in New York State, but in #1 they reference the Washington Irving Sleepy Hollow legend, so I always figured it was meant to be near there. They also mention the Hudson River regularly and obviously live close enough to NYC to visit sometimes.<br /><br />I was planning on rereading #3 as well before handing them over to my niece, so I will research the whole bob-white thing for that one :-)<br /><br />Waving hello back from Sydney, capital of NSW...!Bronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110584237325026052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483877654474162845.post-79449007595453675522016-03-22T07:58:12.562+11:002016-03-22T07:58:12.562+11:00These books look familiar, but I was obviously not...These books look familiar, but I was obviously not obsessed with them the way you were. What fun to find your lists though, and to finally solve the mystery of why you loved them.

I can't remember where Trixie lived--what state was it? Somewhere a lot more Eastern than I lived, I think. I'm still none too sure what a bob-white looks like (mostly I just thought Bob-Whites of the Glen was a dumb name, but I wanted those horses!). Anyway, waving hello from close to Sacramento, capital of California...Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14247515387599954817noreply@blogger.com
