We sure have not spent much time at home this summer. We're home a few days and then off again on another trip. Last week it was a day off in the middle of the week to go to a cabin. We were home Thursday and Friday, and then on the run again all weekend. We were home the first three days of this week but this afternoon we take off again.
Through my genealogy work we were invited to attend a Good reunion in Elida, Ohio, this weekend. It begins on Friday afternoon with a meeting of Good historians who are comng from various states and Canada. I'm looking forward to meeting Martha Huber Good who has written a wonderful book on the Huber and Good family history. I was surprised to learn that although she is coming from Ontario she is actually a couple hundred miles closer to Elida than we are.
The reunion will be held on Saturday and then the Good historians will move on to Lancaster, Ohio, to do some research. We hope to find some Good gravestones and the properties where these people lived. I would love to stay longer to do more research but we will have to come home on Tuesday. Paychecks have been scarce and small this summer, but are we having fun!
