Remarkable Florida Women
Although I was disturbed by Laura's acceptance of her husband's "selfishness" and her putting aside her own feelings and desires throughout the marriage, I was enthralled with the day-to-day activities of their homesteading life. I can see what attracted Laura to this dynamic, intelligent, interesting man but the way she suppressed her own identity is amazing to me....and for such a long time. It is evident that she blossomed after Guy's death. Can you imagine a life of such detail; documenting temperature readings three times a day, counting blueberries per bush, for heaven's sake!!??
I was also in awe of the detail she was able to share which is, of course, due to the journals and the documents and the calendar notations that were so important to Guy. Pretty impressive! I'm happy Laura has made a life for herself taking on some creature comforts but now determining what her future life will be without Guy making all the decisions.
All and all, a good read.
