A trip to the Record Room



Today I went with Elaine, Caroline and mom down to Concord to gather information for genealogical purposes. Actually, I was invited so that I could chauffer. It was a beautiful day, and also good to see how this kind of thing is done with a pro like Elaine. She is writing a book on the Spirit of Elijah, and it is a testimony of redeeming the dead. It is a collection of "goosebumpy" stories that she has experienced and gathered over her years preparing genealogy, and it is nearly complete-I can't wait to read it. We then went out to the Red Apple buffet afterward and ate a ton of food. We took some pictures along the way home (with Carolines' camera) mostly of old barns and homes. I always kick myself for not bringing my camera when I go out. When we got home, he had got a message from Jeremiah and Samantha saying that Caleb was in the newspaper on the front page. I went out and got a paper. It had a picture from their Pinewood Derby that the scouts had. Although his car did not win it was a lot of fun feeling the excitement and energy of all the kids, and am glad that we were invited.




Calebs is the orange fireball

What cute brothers and nephews you have! Pinewood derby is always fun ...I remember when the boys were in scouts and the fun stuff we did. Everyone was always sad when they "lost".
