    Thank you so much for including GopherGenealogy in your list of Fab Finds for this week. I look forward to visiting some of the other listed blogs. Blogging is a wonderful outlet for genealogists and meeting with fellow bloggers is the best part.

    I think this is your best list to date. I'm especially impressed with how two bloggers approached Tombstone Tuesday. I usually use this theme as a quick, cheap, throw-away post to fill the day, but these bloggers have a more worthwhile approach that I will incorporate in the future.

      Wendy... I might have been one of those posts and if so, then I'm completed speechless. If I'm not, I'm still so humbled to be acknowledged by Jana. Thank you.

    Jana... I didn't really think anyone would appreciate my blog other than my mother, and maybe my aunt. Thank you for the honor of mentioning my blog A Patient Genealogist.

    Now... to read all the other items you mentioned. It's quite impressive considering you went camping (hope that was great) and didn't have a 'full week'.
