For as many years as I can remember, I have asked Santa for a mansion! Needless to say Miracle on 34th Street is my favorite seasonal movie!
How nice it would be to have Charles and Mary Rumsey's lovely mansion on Long Island! Since I can not get there in person, the closest to a visit to Wheatley Hills would be a website on Long Island's Gold Coast. The site is www.oldlongisland.com. I was trying to imagine the Christmas' the Rumsey family had there.....
When not time traveling, working out, or hanging out at the Burchfield Penney, Mary Beth Parrinello is the religion teacher in the Montessori program at Nardin Academy in Buffalo, N.Y. She also volunteers her time at Westminster Presbytarian Church, C.G. Jung Center, and Junior League of Buffalo, which was founded by Mary Harriman Rumsey, Charles Cary Rumsey's wife!
