Wednesday, September 24th, 2008This was such a fabulous picture that Ben posted on his Facebook, I had to steal it so that others can enjoy it. This is Ben “working” in Switzerland.
Clarion County, Pennsylvania Research
Monday, August 25th, 2008After having a wonderful day with the Marsches yesterday, I left their house this morning and headed for Clarion, Pennsylvania. My Lee ancestors: father Addison, and children including my great-grandfather Ira Lee moved from Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, sometime after 1876 (record of a deed in Huntingdon) and before 1880 (census in Clarion County). I [...]
Abbie Wins a Ribbon or Two
Monday, August 11th, 2008Abbie entered a “blouse” she made for the Ozark Empire Fair. It’s really the top half of costume (Civil War era dress). She won first place in that division and also a sponsor’s choice award.
Sam’s Summer
Thursday, June 26th, 2008For those of you who aren’t a friend of Sam on Facebook or didn’t follow his enigmatic clue as to following his summer exploits, you can read here. So far he’s posted his itinerary and we hope he continues to update it throughout the summer.
Busy, busy, busy
Sunday, May 18th, 2008Thanks to all of you who visited and commented on my last post. Lorri, Ben will be living in Geneva. Hannah, I’ll email you about the math and phonics. I can only imagine how precocious your daughter might be.
I just got back from The Conference in the States in Kansas City last night. It [...]
Family News
Friday, May 9th, 2008I don’t usually post much about the family because some of them don’t like finding out that people they don’t know seem to know all about them when meeting them in other environments.
Last Thursday-Sunday, the girls and I went up to Indiana to visit Ben and one family we’ve known through the internet for [...]
My response to a response
Friday, April 18th, 2008I was looking on the local paper’s Web site and ran across an article written by Mona Charon about why the public schools are failing to teach ethics or character. There were three replies, one of which was the obligatory, “Oh, if only parents were doing their job….” which seems is the stock answer [...]
Quilt Progress
Tuesday, March 11th, 2008Just so that people don’t think I haven’t made any progress on the quilt (you were all thinking that, right?), I thought I’d post the fruits of my labors even if it did languish here and there for the last three weeks or four… I included some of the surrounding territory to give a sense [...]
Dad
Monday, March 3rd, 2008Here’s a photo of my dad, compliments of my sister Debbie, at about age 1.
The Boys
Saturday, January 26th, 2008The boys got this group shot at Christmas time because there are some who don’t believe that Sam at 6′1″ is the smallest of his brothers (really just height-wise, since two of his brothers are narrower than he). Jed in the back is not standing flat-footed, but he is the tallest at 6′4″. [...]
