I haven't posted for awhile so I thought I'd tell all of you (are any of you reading this???). you about our next adventure!
Ron & I will fly into Newark so we can pre celebrate our oldest Daughters Wedding.
Wo love the sweet Man that she is marrying, along with the love and respect he showers on her he is also a fantastic Chef, and a good sport!
When I wanted to go to Noyack Bay & drive around the area of Long Island where the Jessupas it was probably boring for him ( He here up on Long Island) but he never complained! In fact I think he actually enjoyed most of it! His father came to America from Ireland so John also has "pioneer" foot there !
The trip in the opposite direction . The beautiful Hudson River Valley. As I was looking on
The map we will be driving. Through the town ofRhinebeck & when I saw that me it set off an alert signal so I dug through the family history sheets I have to see if my mind was still a
Our Great ? Great Grandfather settled there and that is where our Great Grandmother Mary Ann Kiley..Early was born!
I'm excited to see the town and once again walk were they did ! I love to picture them and wonder what was their Life was like?!?! We are surrounded by machines that do almost everything for.
Really though what were there lives like? We have problems in our life unlike the challenges our Ancestors did. One thing is the speed our days go by!! Even though they were busy the pace was not so rushed!
I think if we "spy " them we could use the good things that like more family time, do house work & gardening together to strengthen the bond. Those thing help strengthen us, they passes on to us physical traits but also other traits & Talent & interest.
Painting, sewing, needlepoint etc. those talents are gold that we need to search for!
More about The Hudson River Valley to come.........
