Oneida may have exploded, but 120 years later it was reborn as a commune notable for free love and later the manufacture of silverware. Talk about perseverance.
"Free love, and also silverware!" I do love that the commune expelled Charles Guiteau - nobody wanted free love with that guy. Central NY has such a strange history.
Great read, Kate. And regarding your glee about Western NY winters, as a NH native I note winter (from Halloween until the Mayflies hatch) is ‘the other half’ of the year!
