*HI ALL: Just to let everyone know I will be on vacation from Sat., AUG 7-14. With summer & all, things have kind of quieted down a bit anyway, so I'm sure all will be well. I will try to get things stirred up a bit more after I return and get my kids going in "school" again (I homeschool them, so I'm the teacher! 12 & 14 yr old.) I've made some great strides in my genealogy this past year, mostly due to great people on the internet like you, sharing and discussing -- let's keep it up, ok! My prayers & best wishes to those who have had some real bad (hot) or (wet) weather this summer --- we here in CA have had it pretty good..... hot yes, where I am anyway on the central coast (inland, but still only 45 min. from the Pacific Ocean), and dry, but still beautiful most of the time! Be talking with you again soon! (For the newly-formed FRANKLIN/PARKER list, please feel free to go ahead and start posting your lines and queries if you'd like...I can catch up upon my return; or you can wait till I come back....) Best to all, *TINA/CA* List Mgr.
