My Genealogy Tuesday - 15 May 2018
It was not a big genealogy day here in the genea-cave, mainly because we went to the Padres game in the afternoon. Of course, that opened up the evening, which I took advantage of.
* Dropped Linda at the Y, home to read email and blogs, picked her up, and home by 9:15 a.m. Noted that Treasure Chest Tuesday - Lyle L. Carringer's 1909 High School Entrance Card posted, then wrote Genealogy News Bytes - 15 May 2018 and set it for the afternoon. Added to the Best Of post and answered emails.
* Rested my eyes for 40 minutes, and we left at 11:20 for the trolley and the Padres game. Got to our seats by 12:20, and ate lunch (I got a hot dog, Linda brought her popcorn, and we had an ice cream cone). Padres beat the Rockies 4-0 on a one hitter - perfect game through 22 batters by Jordan Lyles. So now 17-27 on the year. We are 4-4 when in attendance.
* We stopped at In 'n' Out for dinner on the way home, and were home by 5 p.m. Watched TV news and read the paper.
* Came in at 6 p.m. to read, wrote the Wordless post, added to the Best Of post, and worked in Ancestry Hints for my big tree adding content and sources. Resolved about 200 Hints.
* Answered email, checked Facebook, and wrote this post. Genealogy today was 5.0 hours.

* Read email and blogs, then we left for church at 9:30 a.m. Consulted with the church AV person about doing my presentation on 5/19 - he will work it out (?). Home by 11:30 a.m. to read, noted that Added or Updated Ancestry.com Collections - Week of 29 April to 5 May 2018 posted, then transcribed the White deed.
* Had lunch, watched the Padres game, read the paper, dozed in the recliner. Padres beat Dodgers 3-0 so now 13-22 - we won another series!
* Online at 4:30 p.m. to read, finished up the CVGS newsletter and emailed it out, noted that Best of the Genea-Blogs - 29 April to 5 May 2018 posted, then wrote the Amanuensis post. Went in for dinner at 5:15 p.m. and watched TV.
* Online at 6 p.m. to work on genealogy. TreeShared the big tree. Checked Facebook. Miriam found an article which led to an obituary which I added. Took a walk on the street, and weeded a bit.
* Worked on the project tree and had no luck trying to find parents of the end-of-line folks. Added some family members and TreeShared it.
* Answered email, added to the new Best Of post, and wrote this post. Genealogy today was 5.5 hours.
