March 17, 2013 - Happy St Patrick's Day to everyone who is Irish, who is descended from Ireland, or who just wishes they were!

March 9, 2013 - One of the joys of genealogy - over the last few days I have discovered that I am (possibly) the 29th great grandson of Lady MacBeth, the 20th great grandson of Robert the Bruce, that I am descended from a line of Scottish kings who ruled in the dark ages, and even ancestors among the Pictish people of Great Britain. 

March 8, 2013 - What an exciting evening this has been! As some of you know, I have been trying to track back my maternal grandfather's family for some years, but with no success. Tonight I met a third cousin who has already found a lot of the data, and graciously shared it with me. I will be posting some of it on my family blog later in the month.

February 21, 2013 - Today marks the fifth anniversary of my new truck. Some of you may wonder why someone would celebrate an anniversary with his truck, but a lot of individuals reading this already know.

January 25, 2013 - Happy Burn's Day to my Scottish friends and family!

January 24, 2013 - I just got my new tablet, and have it set up now. I am back in business, and will be returning missed e-mails and calls for the rest of the day.

January 22, 2013 - I am beginning to think that an evil electronics spirit has invaded my home office. In the last four days I have had my cell phone, tablet computer, desktop computer, webcam, PVR, and my desk lamp all have catastrophic electrical failures and need replacing!

January 13, 2013 - Thank you to everyone who sent kind wishes, and especially to those who sent gifts :)

January 1, 2013 - HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! To all of my friends and family, may you have a healthy, happy, and prosperous 2013!

December 25, 2012 - MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

November 30, 2012 - For those who are interested in genealogy and have a connection to British Columbia, the Royal BC Museum today has made available (for free) scans of original vital statistics certificates. They can be accessed here.

November 22, 2012 - Happy Thanksgiving to all of my American friends and family. Remember, no one will judge you for celebrating over a month too late :)

November 11, 2012 - REMEMBRANCE DAY - May we never forget the brave men and women who kept this country safe.

November 1, 2012 - Another reminder, that Movember is now upon us and it is time for men to support men's health issues, and for the women who tolerate them to be supportive. So to the clean shaven masses, start growing for the cure :)
