The You Go Genealogy Girls are busy filling summer hours with genealogy, traveling and family commitments. One thing for sure, we are having fun. We e-mail each other and chat on the phone, sharing our experiences and plans. Sometimes our schedules change, but we still focus on genealogy and history and try to put hours into the day for personal time.
Since returning from the YGGG's trip to Salt Lake City in June, I have been traveling with the Family History Expo. It has been a fantastic summer of meeting people who have a desire to learn about their ancestry. I have met relatives along the way, enjoyed visiting and sharing tidbits of family information. The Civil War Conference in YGGG #2's hometown of Alliance, Nebraska was a great experience.
Here it is July 23rd and I leave on the 27th for Overland Park, Kansas. The Family History Expo there will be another adventure. Wonder who I'll meet there? If you are planning to attend, you will have a great genealogy experience. We are like one big family and all of us, whether beginning or advanced in our research knowledge, are learning.
The weather in west-central Nebraska has been extremely hot and humid for several weeks. That has necessitated that I spend more time inside going through genealogy files, preparing future lectures, writing a book and also reading books. I have also enjoyed spending time with my family. My granddaughter reminded me yesterday that school starts in less than a month. What? How did that happen. Guess the days and weeks of summer are going fast.
Cooler days of September and October will not slow me down. I am already calculating where I will be going in search of ancestors. I can always stay inside later and watch it snow.
