Third World Skiing Dangers

Hello, just got back from a few days skiing during the boys spring break at Cerro Catedral in Bariloche, Argentina. An avalanche a few weeks ago wiped out this lodge on the slopes. Fortunately, no one was there overnight when it happened. Never would have thought they would put a lodge where it could be obliterated by an avalanche.
















Anyway we had a good time and the boys perfected their style with nice spring weather. Here is a recent picture of Luciana and Alejandro (7) and Nicholas (6).






When you come visit you will have to stay here at Llao llao....near Bariloche. where Luciana and I escaped for a quiet lunch while the boys skied on Friday.















Dad - 1952

Angus kids in Oregon


Here's a recent photo of Libby, Leslie, and Eleanor at Fort Clatsop in Oregon, July 2008. Eleanor had done a report on explorers for school, so she was particularly interested in the Lewis & Clark expedition. Well, we all were actually!

Arizona in January

Here are a few shots from our visit to Tucson last winter. We enjoyed a nice lunch at Grampa and Libby's new digs.


We had a mini-reunion with Libby's family,

I sent out author invitations to everyone I had addresses for: Grampa Tidd, Mom, Dad, Bill, John, Allison, Nathan, Cy, Allan, Monique & Adrian. Please comment on this entry (or email me) to give me more author emails and I'll add them, make suggestions, etc. We can have up to 100 authors.

Georgetown 1920 Census

We're in the process of getting the text from the 1920 Georgetown census. I haven't seen any direct ancestors yet but did find a George Tidd living with his daughter Nellie Hardy and her family and a John & Louise Prescott, child Charles and two step kids with a last name of McBride (can't read first names).
