As we push through the garden gate of the old homestead, we are surprised at how much smaller things are than we remembered them, and how much work needs to be done. -The Hummer-

Making Family Heirlooms Accessable
Today, I was walking into the grocery store and there in front was a group of Shriners taking donations for their hospitals in Texas. I walked up and donated because I know what a wonderful job their hospitals do. I also asked whether my mason's apron would be viewable by the public if I were to donate it to them. I received a resounding yes that anyone could go see it if desired at the museum in Waco. I will be donating it to the Masonic Grand Lodge in Waco, TX, which has a Library (that does genealogical research or allows you to do the research yourself) and a Museum,in December. I am excited that it will be available for any family member who desires to go to see it, because I can not always be available when others would like to make their visit. This is a good thing.
