Ancestors

Genealogy is the latest computer based passion in my house. It's ironic that modern high speed information technology makes looking into the past much easier. For me, it's exciting to feel a real sense of history that connects to family. Numerous databases available on the inter net make "playing detective" a fun challenge while doing research in home based comfort.

As I explore and discover more about my family I find humor in the fact that when "relatives" become "ancestors" they become more interesting. It's almost as if the story we all have to tell will be more of interest when we are not around to tell it. :-)
