I’m working on those website corrections. Fun stuff. Actually, what’s more fun– and I’m betting this is the group that would be interested in this (being a little geeky and good-oriented): I was driving around Fredericksburg today (I was either on Stafford St. or on Augustine St. can’t remember) and saw the google “street view” […]

Three posts today?? Well, yes. But only to say that I’m back in the history game. I have a much better attitude now. All it takes is some college basketball games on tv. Also, just wanted another update to say that I’ve put more on the “about” page. And since I’ve done that, I responded […]
