Thought I should mark the end of a decade and a little, of work.
The Michael Shoemaker book now is in a gedcom. It can be searched, shared and expanded. Sunday night Adam came in to Mike's room to find the book closed.
1,000 pages and 43,143 people entered. Seeing the book completely closed he asked "Is it finally done?" Yes.
Now what do I do when I've got time. Well Andee's dress is almost finished and I think I'll make two more to put in the hope chest.
I've made a few phone calls and have started copying information that others have wanted out of this massive book but couldn't find.
I might even find more time to spend on my radio. I hear there are a few women's only nets for ham radio operators.
It does seem strange to be done. I wish dad were still here, he could have shone me how to share the information more effectively. Just a side note, findagrave.com, has the Glen Spey, Sullivan, New York Cemetery on it. Paul used to mow it. Several of the Gillespie clan are there and someone took a picture of his aunt Blanche's head stone. It was a great find. I love pictures of places that he talked about.
Life is just a great adventure, with a few thorns along the way.

I don't know how you got that all done and worked all day for me... Where do you find the time?
That's why it was a ten year project. Real life kept happening.
why do you think that we only have 9 children
