We have a 2 hour delay this morning, and even though I'm supposed to be at work on time, I have to go in late and take personal or vacation days (accumulated) because there's no before-care at school for Sylvie (and George leaves for work in the morning before our system even makes the call) . . .
Anywho, I've been sick with a nasty cold-turned-sinus infection for about a week now, and I spend hours on end at night trying to get back to sleep. Instead of counting sheep, I've turned to thinking about all the stuff I need to do and want to do -- one of them being blog more often about more interesting stuff. So, here's the list of topics I'd like to dip into if I ever find the time:
- my artist great-great uncles, the Zepps
- the Salty Dog Tavern across from Harpers Ferry
- the Poole's Store at Seneca
- my grandmother Helen Null
- Tanner and his battle with cancer
- Is Frog Hollow really a hollow?
- more on morel mushroom hunting
- the C&O Canal around these parts
- Antietam Ironworks in more depth
- moonshine-making past here
- Bernie Adkins
- the building of Michael's Home
- Michael's Home and the Civil War
- my grandmother Ann Ziegler
- George's great-grandmother Cordie Otzelberger
Do you have any ideas for me to explore? I'd love to hear about them in the comments!
