Been a busy few weeks here and an awesome weekend to top it all off. We've been staying busy with yard work. This past winter was so cold here in Michigan and the snow amounts were so bad... I know I've not seen this much snow here since I moved here 21 years ago. That said, our roses took a major hit. After much research and discussion we opted to cut them back drastically and see if maybe over the next few months they will come back. I'm pretty sure that at least two are done. We have many flower beds here at Karma Gardens and keeping up with them at times can be a daunting task. That's okay, the beauty they provide more than outweighs the work we do to keep them up.
Took a break from the upkeep of the property and went to Lansing on Friday and Saturday for the Summer Seminar put on by the Abrams Foundation & the Michigan Genealogical Council. What a great job they did. A wide variety of speakers covering a wide spectrum of topics. I think all the attendees really enjoyed themselves. Friday night was the lock in, 38 lucky persons were "locked" in the Michigan Archives for an evening of research. What a great evening.
There will be another seminar at the library on Saturday November 1st. All the details are in process but from what I saw at this past weekends seminar, the focus will be German & Pennsylvania research. Mark your calendars! I'm sure you won't be disappointed.
Happy Monday everyone!
