He died when I was 5, shortly after our family moved into his house (where my Mom grew up). My grandmother, Nanny Peacox never spoke of him to me.

Great pictures. The Hudson River High above, eagles fly Under blue skies. Down under, Saplings grow On the river bank. New light shines over the horizon Running water Is crashing into the bank, Veering here and there Eating away at the Rock. By John Hordines, age 11 !! 2008 Finalist New windsor, N.Y.

Great pictures.
The Hudson River
High above, eagles fly
Under blue skies.
Down under,
Saplings grow
On the river bank.
New light shines over the horizon
Running water
Is crashing into the bank,
Veering here and there
Eating away at the
Rock.
