Hi all, I just wanted to let everyone know that from this Friday, Dec 18, until Jan 4, 1999, I will NOT be at this e-mail address (work). I will be available at tlturbo@aol.com if anyone has wonderful discoveries they have made and want to send them to me. Ahhhh, the joys of working for a school system. And for those of you that hate me because I live in SW Florida, I want you to know that it got down to 55 last night and I about froze. Then the sonic boom from the shuttle coming in across the state last night to land at Canaveral shook the house and woke everyone up wondering what had blown up. Seriously, I started this list last March wondering if it would be of any help and we now have over 70 subscribers. Many of you I correspond with on a weekly (sometimes daily) basis. I have really enjoyed meeting all of you. We're spread all over the country, and come from many walks of life and occupations, from retirees (we have LOTS of them in FL in the winter) to students that are just getting interested in their family history. I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday season and that next year brings you all the genealogy discoveries that had you stumped this year. Just something to throw out. Several of us have talked about getting together next year. Anyone interested? We were thinking of Atlanta as that is fairly central and very easy and cheap to get to. Think it over and we'll discuss it more later. Again, after tomorrow, write me at tlturbo@aol.com and HAPPY HOLIDAYS Terry Littleton (listdad) Terry
