Into a town called Sodus where we had a coffee, and picked up bookmarks from Amanda and Roxanne. A slightly spooky ghostly reflection of me taking the photo as they were behind plexiglass.
To Ontario (not that one). Wikipedia doesn’t say why it’s named Ontario.
The first settler was Freeman Hopkins, who arrived in 1806. He built a small log cabin that had to hold his nine children, wife and himself. Heavy timber and swamps made life difficult for the first settlers. The town of Ontario was created in 1807 as the "Town of Freetown" from a part of the town of Williamson. Soon after, the name was changed to "Ontario". — Wikipedia
Another library, and bookmarks from Sandy.
Into Rochester to see the George Eastman (Kodak) museum. One of the photo exhibitions was about segregated school proms. When, you ask? 1920? 1930? Nope - not integrated until 2010.
A segregated prom refers to the practice of United States high schools, generally located in the Deep South, of holding racially segregated proms for white and black students. The practice spread after these schools were integrated, and persists in a few rural places to the present day. The separate proms have been the subject of frequent (often negative) press coverage, and several films. — Wikipedia
