Hi! I'm back in for a week, then I'll be off again on a short trip to visit
relatives and the archives in Alabama! :) I had over 2000 messages awaiting
my return. :( I've gone through and deleted MANY of them, mostly just
keeping the ones from "my" lists. If you've sent me a question and I don't
respond by Saturday evening, please send it again, since I may have gotten
Delete-Happy. :) My *saddest* moment while in Washington, D.C. last week
was going into the Tourist side of the National Archives to see the original
Declaration of Independence, Constitution, Bill of Rights, and the 1297 copy
of the Magna Carta on loan from Ross Perot but *NOT* being able to go around
to the research side for a few hours. Two days is not nearly enough to be
in DC. :( Someday I'll go back and look at military records! If the new,
higher fees "stick", it may well be worth the price of a hotel room there
for a few days to save the $40 per file cost for copies! :) Though I don't
know how much they charge for you to make your own copies.
Hope everyone is having a pleasant June! :)
