Capitol Tour Guide

The tourguide who showed my group the Connecticut State Capitol's Senate chamber said her name is Miss Informed.  I don't think so.

  2. PS. I wondered if you had been in Shem Creek because I recalled that you had had a bicycle tour in Charleston awhile back. Thanks for the comments on my blog.

  7. Nope. She's lying. Her real name is Mrs. Informed! Cute portrait, though.

    Re your comment on Ocala: You must not have been a school teacher or you would know that all teens are fearsome! :-)

  8. Very nice. My Honey and I enjoy tours of historical places. Those who give the tours usually have a great interest in their subjects, too.

  12. Hi Jack, why do you think she is not informed? She looks so competent...

  13. What's wrong with being called Miss and to have the surname 'Informed'? Really, Jack, that is so obviously true... She looks like she is enjoying what she is doing though!

  14. I think tours like this are fascinating. The last one we did was the Belfast, Northern Ireland, City Hall a couple of years ago. Maybe it's the members of the chamber who are Miss Informed.

  15. I should do that but I fear running into the governor and I can't stand her.

  16. It is quite a talent and a bit of theatre to be able to talk about history and to captivate an audience. Bravo!
