My daughter is in San Diego this weekend for a football game. When she asked me what I wanted her to bring me as a souvenir, I asked for a picture of Beth Sarim.
Then I started thinking about how that fine old mansion should be turned into a museum (as many Shaker villages have been) in memory of the folly and foibles of J.F. Rutherford and the organization which he molded and promoted.
This may be far fetched, but are there others here who think we should all start a fund to purchase the property at 4440 (I think) Braeburn Road in the posh Kensington Heights section of San Diego? I think it would be appropriate to frame and hang on the walls lots of documentation about Rutherford and Watchtower history as well has have a library of Rutherford's writings. To support the institution, rooms could be rented out bed-and-breakfast style.
Farkel would make an ideal curator. We would all like to visit and spend a night boozing it up in not-so-fond memory of the original resident there, I think.
What do all of you think?
Regards,
Mum
