When I first explored the streets of my town from my little blue roadster, I was struck by a comfortable familiarity. "A sleepy tree-lined Midwestern suburbia formed by the winding bends of a river." Oh my gosh, Delaware could be the inspiration for River Heights, USA. "Home to famous mystery case attorney, Carson Drew and his daughter Nancy."

A town filled with bungalows and unsavory ruffians casing them for hidden treasure. Check, we've got those

Old attics hidden behind secret staircases? You bet!

Larkspur Lane? Well, I haven't found it yet; but in my trusty blue roadster, I'll be on this case until solved! Nancy Drew was the heroine of my childhood. Plucky and independent. A car of her own and a fantastic wardrobe. My willful streak I owe to Nancy Drew!

how lucky for you! I would have LOVED living there while reading about Nancy's marvelous adventures! Was her boyfriends name Ken??? That made it fun also.
Too bad today's kids do not get "lost" in a good mystery book like these and the Hardy boys.
Did you ever read books about a girl named,,,mm Betsy I think???
Hugs,
Mary
My boys consumed the Hardy Boys books. I am still on the look out for editions that are missing from our ever growing collection.
These were three of my favorite Nancy Drew books - actually they all were my favorites!!!
Nancy was my hero, too. Many a summer day was spent in the back yard under the huge maple tree devouring Nancy Drew books. When my own daughter was old enough I bought her the first 3 in the series....and she hated them. I was crushed! I also loved Cherry Ames, Student Nurse. The houses in your town are lovely by the way. I could move right in to any you've ever shown!
I loved Nancy Drew, I read every book at least twice!! I still love a good mystery! Thankyou for bringing back some fun chilhood memories!! Thank you Elizabeth!!!
Nancy Drew books were the first that made me realize I could simply turn a page, and be transported into another world. I loved reading each one from my grandparent's summer porch. Thank You for such a warm memory.
I loved reading Nancy Drew. This would be a good day to settle back with one and enjoy an adventure! Have a nice weekend! Twyla
Your town does have a storybook look...lovely. There are no houses like that where I live. I just last week pulled out one of my Nancy Drew books to read. They bring me back to my childhood in the Midwest - reading them at my friend's house in her cozy attic bedroom.
Beautiful neighborhood, beautiful photos. And we actually have a friend who lives on Larkspur Lane- funny!
Congratulations to all those who watch for the smooth running of this magnificent blog !!
