For all those who have requested it...here's the story:

My word, I didn’t realize it had been so long since I posted here. Seems September 2004 was a month I felt encouraged about the course of my family meanderings. And very shortly thereafter (October to be exact) set in the beginning of the end of my abilities to cope with the overload.

At any rate, I shall return shortly to continue the family history, that may some day be of some value to at least one or two of my descendants. I think I'd like to muddle through some ancient family photos to accompany the stories too. What's a story without pictures?!

Stay tuned. (I knew if I posted this promise, my sense of obligation would not allow me to forget to keep my word. I’ve learned how to manipulate myself fairly well.)
