My husband has dubbed the triple soled slippers I make "Air Grandmas" :)

I've been reading (lurking). Now I'm trying to get all these piles of sorted pictures scanned and into a photobook for my kids' Christmas presents. I got myself into aLOTa time consuming work! I also just discovered the microfilmed, 1870's newspapers at the library, with news stuff about my ancestors. I want to get what I know about them, and the pictures of them also in a book.

Now that I'm really interested in family history stuff, the people that would know things are no longer alive :(
If I don't jot down what I remember, and what I'm finding, it won't go forward to the next generations.

Old newspapers are interesting! I should have made a copy of one thing I was reading today..it was telling what to do to avoid lead poisoning. One of the mines here was one of the top producers of Lead way back then. The news article said to drink barley juice..and put a few drops of some kind of sulphur in water and drink it. It was supposed to be a sulphate to help eliminate the Lead.
