While sitting and contemplating things, and reading a small article by Richard Bass, I remembered that my older brother always complained loudly that "no one ever closes doors around here"! Well, maybe we are all claustrophobic!
And how could it be that my husband and I have ancestors, both named Thomas Jefferson in our families! How could that happen. Must have been a popular name. I am working on tracing the male ancestors in my family. Am currently waiting on information about my Father and is he really Irish or Scottish! A toss up!
Lot of family came through Iowa, Ohio, and Kansas. Then on to Washington to pioneer the place in the woods! Hard times!
Into the twilight of my time on this good earth, and reading terrible tomes about previous famines, and seeing the ground around me being brown, causing dust to make me sneeze, and wondering when the water will fall out of the sky once again. Oh, thats right, it is doing that in Washington to a fault!
Well, this is a start, doing once again, my blog! I really have so many other things to do but I want to write. I sent away my DNA for testing to see if the rumors in our family about just what is in our background is true. It will be like a Christmas present finding out! Whoopee, I hope it is true, or if not, maybe a surprise! Till next time!
