Kooks Bed was Sarah Morgans during the Civil War
The Bed in my room today-
I was able to acquire one the most beautiful beds from an antique store in Moscow, Idaho. A friend saw it on his travels sent me a photo and insisted it had to be mine, i soon called the owner and he told me the bed was originally from Baton Rouge , Louisiana and had belonged to a girl that famously, journal-ed during the civil war in the bed and throughout Louisiana. My mother passed away on August 3rd and when i came home from settling her personals i knew it was time to heal, and this was the bed i was going to heal in! I also ordered her book thinking "how cool to read it in her bed", Three attempts later the book finally arrived on my BIRTHDAY today!
The first two books i ordered were the wrong books? weird huh? i figured i would try one more time before visiting her city Baton Rouge, two weeks passed and NO book? So we left for our trip , visited the Castle/state capitol/museum, did the tour and even watched an astounding Haunted Mansion style film about her titled "The Ghost of the Castle". Here is the bed in my room, the book arriving and A few images from our visit.
