My Semi-Genealogy Tuesday - 31 May 2016

I was away from Thursday, 26 May until today at my daughter's home in Santa Cruz having fun with my oldest grandson while his mother and brother went camping.  I did stay up-to-date over the long weekend with my genealogy work, news and sports.  Quite a bit of the effort was to prepare for this coming weekend when we go to Burbank for the Jamboree.  Today's log:

*  Up at 7 p.m. at Lori's to read email and blogs on the tablet, then had breakfast and worked for two hours on blog posts.  Packed up.

*  We left for the airport at 10:20 a.m., got there by 11:20 a.m., and I had lunch and waited for my 1:40 p.m. flight which was right on time.  We arrived in San Diego at 3 p.m. right on schedule.  Read my book.

*  I got home at 4 p.m. from the airport today, and read the latest email and blogs, adding content to the Best Of post.  Noted that Treasure Chest Tuesday - 1890 Death Record for Sarah (Auble) SchoonoverJesse Montgomery Seaver Genealogies  and  SCGS Jamboree is Almost Here - Starts Thursday! posted.

*  Had dinner, watched TV, and then at 7 p.m. transcribed another part of Henry smith's probate file.

*  Went in at 8 p.m. to watch Genealogy Roadshow, and then back to write next week's Amanuensis Monday post.

*  Wrote this post, and I'm done.  Genealogy today was 6.5 hours.
