@Paige Oh how I loved that show. My folks would tease me ( lovingly), about my obsession with the program. Later, I was inspired by John Boy Walton’s nightly journal writings, on the Walton’s. My parents then said “ Nancy, you’re going to someday be a writer and illustrator!” That never happened, but I’m still loving sketching and journaling. It’s so fabulous for our minds and spirits, yes?

@Nancy Absolutely! I love the Waltons too. I own the first 7 seasons (the last two got a little odd when so many of the original characters left).

@Nancy Just googled it. Man, that theme song takes me back! Unfortunately, I found this in Wikipedia: "Unfortunately, most episodes of Hodgepodge Lodge have been lost because the master tapes were erased to save money by allowing the tapes to be reused. Of the over 760 original episodes, only about 30 remain. Maryland Public Broadcasting offers some of the surviving episodes on DVD."

@Paige Hi Paige Wow ! What a shame! Too bad more were not kept. Oh that sounds great! Thank you for that info. She inspired so many of us kids. Nature was something we were “ in” everyday. I miss those days.

@Paige Hi Ellen I bought mine through Amazon. It’s such a beautiful book!  Enjoy! 😊  

@Nancy oops. This went to the wrote poster. Sorry.

@Amy Hi Amy That’s neat! Wasn’t it interesting? She held your attention for sure. I always wanted to live in her little house.
