--- Quote from: OldHat on Tuesday December 19, 2017, 11:16:31 PM Eastern ---On a side note, the term "travel log" originates from the 15th century in England, where migrant peasants looking for work, would offer wood for locals to burn in exchange for a warm place to sleep.  It became common, and somewhat of an expectation that migrant workers would bring some small offering in exchange for quarter.  During the ice age, this was most often wood to burn, though sometimes it might be a small meat offering, relatively clean cloth, or an unwanted virgin.  Unwanted virgins were common at the time, as most people were exceedingly unattractive due to harsh winds, open sores, and dental hygiene deficiencies; while meat and relatively clean cloth were exceedingly uncommon.

In Old English "travaille logue" - as you can see the French Norman influence on the term.

I love words...  I guess you might say I'm an amateur entomologist.



Hope you guys have a frackin fantastic time  :D

Have fun Lady and DC!  Don't do anything I wouldn't do...

did you mean "little ice age"? Ice age and little ice age are both recognized as two different things, the little ice age fits in your timeline  ;D
