My Semi-Genealogy Weekend - 2 and 3 May 2015

I did not do any real research this weekend...but my Padres won 2 more games!

1)  Saturday, 2 May 2015

*  Read email and blogs, in a hurry, then off to Marie Callenders for the Men's group breakfast.

*  Left there at 9:30 a.m. for the Bonita library and the CVGS workshop.  Got set up, then talked for two hours about FamilySearch search techniques using hands-on exploration of FS features, searches of indexed records, and searching digital microfilm - the Browse Images collections.

*  Went to lunch with Robisons and Castros, and then back for Shirley's talk.  I came home because I was exhausted and not feeling well.  Tried to nap but had reflux issues.  Noted that Surname Saturday -- CLARK (England to colonial Massachusetts) and Saturday Night Genealogy Fun -- Guessing Ages in Photographs posted.

*  We left at 3:45 p.m. for El Pollo Loco for Linda's dinner, then the trolley to Petco Park and the Padres game.  Was in my seat at 5 p.m., got my pizza slice and ice cream, then watched the game.  And the fireworks show too.  Pads won 4-2 to be 13-12, and won 2 in a row.

*  Got a trolley at 9:15 p.m. and home at 10 p.m. to read, check Facebook, and to bed at 11:15.  Had reflux issues again and didn't really sleep well until after 2 a.m.  Genealogy on Saturday was 4.5 hours.

2)  Sunday, 3 May 2015:

*  Read email and blogs and got Best of the Genea-Blogs - 26 April to 2 May 2015 ready to post.  Then off to church.  Really sleepy, but feeling better.  Dozed during the sermon.  My ears are plugged up too, need to be flushed.

*  Home at 11:45 a.m. to watch TV, take a nap, and eat lunch, then watched Padres game. and read the paper.  More nap time.  Pads won 8-6, so now 14-12, a 4-5 homestand, and have won three straight.  Now off to San Francisco.

*  Came in at 4:30 p.m. to read, then wrote Added or Updated Databases at Ancestry.com - Week of April 26 to May 2, 2015.  Wrote the FS post also.

*  Went in for dinner at 5:230 p.m., watched TV news, and went out at 6 p.m. to cut the fronrt lawn, then water the front years.

*  Online at 7 p.m. to read, answer email, add to the Best Of post, and transcribe a will for the Amanuensis Monday post.  Wrote this post.  Checked Facebook.  Genealogy on Sunday was 4.0 hours.
