My Genealogy Weekend - 27 and 28 June 2015

This wasn't a real big genealogy weekend - baseball interfered with research and writing

1)  Saturday, 27 June:

*  Read email and blogs, noted that Surname Saturday -- MOORECOCK (England to colonial New England) posted, and worked on the DNA match tree a bit.  Answered email.

*  We left at 10:35 a.m. for Gary's and the CVGS picnic.  A good time was had by all.  Home by 2:15 p.m.

*  Immediately took a good nap.  Up at 3 p.m. refreshed, and worked on the presentation, got #3 and #2 done.  Noted that Saturday Night Genealogy Fun - Your Own Scavenger Hunt posted.

*  We left at 5 p.m. for El Pollo Loco for dinner, then the trolley for the Padres game.  In our seats at 6:30 p.m., had my ice cream.  Padres won 7-2 over D-backs, so now 37-40 on the season.  Won two straight.

*  Home by 11 p.m. to read, add to the Best Of post, and off to bed at 11:40.  Didn't sleep well.  Genealogy on Saturday was 7.5 hours.

2)  Sunday, 28 June:

*  Read email and finished up the Best of the Genea-Blogs - 21 to 27 June 2015 post.

*  We went off to church at 9:30 a.m., and home by 11:30.  Online to read blogs and answer email.  Wrote Added or Updated Databases at Ancestry.com - Week of June 20 to 26, 2015 and set it for later.

*  Ate lunch and watched Padres game, read the paper, and dozed a bit.  Padres lost 6-4 to D-backs so now 37-41.  Drat.  

*  Online at 3:45 p.m. to read, write one post for Monday.  Downloaded some probate files from American Ancestors, renamed them, and put them in the surname/famiyl files.

*  Went in at 5:30 p.m. to watch TV news and eat dinner, water the front plants and wash dishes.

*  Online at 6:30 p.m. to read, then wrote the Amanuensis Monday post.  Checked Facebook, added to the new Best Of post, and worked in the database adding content and sources.  Got through the K and into the L surnames.  Genealogy today was 7.0 hours.
