Welcome

As we say above, this is mainly for friends and family. Michael's blog on the Middle East can be found here. Most of our other links can be found below on the right, but be sure to keep up as well with our family website, here. We also have discussion groups for genealogy, links to genealogical information on us, and our (semi-private) Flickr and YouTube accounts for those who are invited. You can also get a quick-navigation guide here.

Another good day

Another good day. (Actually now yesterday, Feb. 17, Saturday of President's Day weekend.) We went out to Manassas Battlefield (known to the damyankees as Bull Run) and hiked on some of the hiking trails. Sarah declared that she loved hiking. She has never loved hiking before. She is going to find herself hiking a lot this year, I think. We identified deer tracks, horeshoe prints, dog tracks etc. in the mud; she found a good hiking staff and walked with it; she declared herself very happy. She got ice cream afterward.

This is the second day to get out of the urban environment, and we've both realized how long we've been missing it. The trips to Baltimore and Philadelphia and Norfolk were fine, but we'd been too long without country. I think we're really revived.
