I hope one of them sees this and decides to "go for it".....who knows how long the "wendell consciousness" as we know it will be able to sustain itself...we are still holding tight to a day full of Peace, Love, Music and local creativity,and unique talents..... THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES AND THE INSPIRATION!! KAREN COPELAND.

Hi Karen,

Thanks for the nice comment. This particular Old Home Day was the first of it's specific kind, thought up and promoted by Pat Judice, others, and myself, brainstorming new directions for the town to go into, seeing as how we had so many new "creative back to the earth" folks who had moved into town. It certainly was a wonderful day, and seemed to bridge the gap between the old and new families, bringing a sense of understanding for all! GO WENDELL, a great little town.

Please forward this to anyone you might think would like it. Thanks, Loisdedois

Thank you for this wonderful post. I had the good fortune to meet the Diemand family (Hi Annie) when I was a neighbor in Millers Falls (Popcorn Farm) during the early 70's.

Love the music.

What a GREAT video! We lived in Wendell prior to moving to Florida. Quaint, diverse, unique and unforgettable really do describe the villiage on top of the mountain!

Thanks, Narnie Chaisson

Hi to all the Wendell folks. Nice to see this old film. It brings back good memories. I'm the guy with the patched blue jeans unloading forge and anvil from the truck bed... starting around 5:34. At the time I had a blacksmith shop in nearby Orange, MA. Hope all my old friends are doing well.
