Wife found three gold canisters on clearance at a Hobby Lobby in San Antonio. She brought hem home and put them on the counter and told me they are not to be used, only looked at. This is getting quite out of hand!!

Try hard not to offend. Try harder not to be offended.
I think I am funnier than I really am.

LOL, yes women sure like their pretties. I kind of gave up on pretty decorations as we heat with a wood stove, in the winter and they collect dust. No matter what, wood stoves are dirty, even if one is careful.

Considering dire weather predictions, all has been ok here.
The internet was out yesterday, it’s still wobbly today. Electricity has stayed on!
Sure wondering how appleman’s trees are doing.
i don’t remember the year his orchard was devastated by warm winter temps.

Re: Today ...
Today I found out that I had ancestors on both sides of my grandparents, on the Mayflower. My eighth great-grandfather was actually born on the Mayflower in Plymouth Bay. Also learned that the first group--the Separatists--named the two groups of passengers the Saints and the Strangers (I half expected the second group to be labeled the Sinners). My ancestors were in the former group, and I hope they were truly saints.

Re: Today ...
From my experience digging into ancestry, i suspect many-most on this forum have close ancestral ties, in addition to the Mennonite Game. My most recent surprise is “trace Ethiopian” .. it appeared through DNA, no names.Joy wrote: ↑Wed Mar 06, 2024 5:03 pm Today I found out that I had ancestors on both sides of my grandparents, on the Mayflower.

Science supports scriptures.
It’s crazy how so much history is lost in the business of everyday life, and, trying to survive.

My wife's family traces it's roots to the Mayflower and the Wampanoag Indians who met them. John Alden and Priscilla Mullen were their progenitors.Joy wrote: ↑Wed Mar 06, 2024 5:03 pm Today I found out that I had ancestors on both sides of my grandparents, on the Mayflower.

Re: Today ...
The deer are hungry. They must have run out of their favorite mast because they chewed down half of the blueberry bushes we planted. My wife is out fertilising and trying to coax them to live. I cannot hear what she is saying to the blueberry bushes but I am sure it is not complimentary of the deer.

Re: Today ...
John Alden was in the Strangers group, I hear. When I was growing up, rumor had it that we were descendants of him and Priscilla, but apparently that was only a rumor.gcdonner wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2024 5:40 pmMy wife's family traces it's roots to the Mayflower and the Wampanoag Indians who met them.

Isn't it interesting that as you get older, you are more interested in ancestry? But now haplogroups don't interest me, presumably because I possess no
Y-chromosome.
