Is there a local legend in the area you live in?

[c=800000]For example, Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox from Minnesota. [/c]

Right in my back yard. They're pushing bigfoot too but I'm bigfoot. At least that's what the Dickson girl discovered after she saw me picking strawberries in the field in a bug suit.

Maybe he didn’t come by until after you became a state . But we have more in common or close , we are known as the pine tree state your state tree is pine. Very interesting... by the way come back here and get your loons 😂 yes we have just a few. ( understatement) @ProfessorPlum77

Among the Pilgrims who first arrived here in Plymouth, Massachusetts, was a lovely young woman named Priscilla Mullin. The first Governor of Massachusetts, being a busy man, used to send his friend, John Alden, to Priscilla's home, to conduct his courting FOR him.

It seems that Priscilla did not love the Governor, and said, "Why don't you speak for yourself, John?"

@4meAndyou [c=800000]I like it!!! So, did she marry John or the governor?
PS Who sends a friend to "conduct his courting for him?" [/c]

4meAndyou · F

@ProfessorPlum77 Standish did...because he was too busy, I guess. Yes, she married John Alden. The whole story is there in the link I provided.

ProfessorPlum77 · 70-79, MVIP

@4meAndyou Thank you.

Since legends can also be real life people whose reputations are larger than life, the community is named for John C. Fremont who mapped a lot of the west and ran for President, was the first working place for Charlie Chaplin in the silent movies, and I guess you could now add Elon Musk for his Tesla plant even if he, himself, has moved to Texas. At least as far as the tax accountants are concerned.

ProfessorPlum77 · 70-79, MVIP

@dancingtongue [c=800000]I am familiar with him. He was married to Jessie Fremont. Her father was a senator from Missouri. ("Profiles in Courage." "Immortal Wife.") [/c]
