Just some thoughts . . .

I hope everyone in the U.S. enjoyed a wonderful Labor Day holiday.  I took some extra time in addition.  So while I've been on vacation this week, I have spent a lot ot time working on family history.  Several of the family members have been working on tracing our common ancestry.  It's very easy to get lost in it .  It's also amazing what is available online much of which is courtesy of the LDS Family Center.  With so many records now available on the Internet, most of the time you no longer have to travel just to find something.  It's still time-consuming to dig through everything, but it's very gratifying to find each piece.  Like filling in a giant puzzle or solving a mystery.

For anyone who would like to read the short story "For the Love of Lily" as a single, revised posting,  check out A Cup of Words - The Journal.  The Journal is the blog site for our writer's group, so you will see postings from several members of our group.  For those of you who enjoy poetry, you might also check out Timeless Lyrical Ephemera which features poetry from different members.
