Family
Had a zoom call with Ashlee and Behr. He is crawling now and so quick and into everything. He is too adorable. They will be moving back to California next month and can't wait. We are so excited!! She gave me their new address and I looked it up on Google maps while we were talking. I can't wait to see them. 

Skylar called to let us know she and Jake are moving to Texas. She will finish her Vet Tech schooling out there. She wants to practice Equine vet medicine and feels she has a better chance of finding a job in Texas due to the amount of ranches there. The prison that Jake works at is closing and he wants to go into Law Enforcement. They both have researched this decision a lot and feel Texas is the place for them. 

Lisa Call
This week we decided to get into the program Zotero. We both ordered the book and downloaded the free software. We will read the first 3 chapters on the book and discuss when we meet next Monday. Zotero for Genealogy: Harnessing the Power of Your Research (The Golden Egg Genealogist Series) Donna Cox Baker

Volunteer Work & Meeting
I met with Adelle on Saturday to discuss upcoming events. We have a low registration count for our 4 main classes for the month of June.

Set up Pre-Check meeting for the Fold3 webinar I'm hosting on June 8th. I'm still trying to get ahold of the speaker for the Findmypast webinar on Wednesday June 2nd. I've asked Maureen for her help in getting a hold of the speaker. 

Amigos Call  (Lisa, Linda, Stewart)
Had our call but for the life of me can't remember what we talked about. 

Trips
We picked up our RV from Leale's and brought it home. It was really dusty inside  so I cleaned the inside and put things away we took out while it was getting worked on. Barry installed side cameras and finished a few maintenance things on the inside. He also cleaned the carpets again. Renee came over and finely got to see the RV. She has not been able to due to Covid. She didn't realize how big it was. 

I went to lunch on Wednesday with Renee. We drove down to Niles and did some shopping. I bought a few things for the vegetable garden area and she bought some items for her backyard. Rita joined us for lunch and it was great to see her again. We had a great day and the weather was perfect for our outing.

June 26 through June 30, 2023 Pismo Beach

Pacific Coast Village Site #382 JEEPS - 5 (Tuesday), 22 (Thursday) We left home on Monday, June 26th , for Pismo Beach. We are staying at Pismo Coast Village RV Resort for the first time. They have 400 sites. We made the reservations six months ago. We normally stay at Oceano State Beach RV Park, but we wanted to try this place. We are here with Jan & Ken Reynolds. This place does not let you choose a site; they will only tell you your site number the morning you check-in. This is also a place you can join for $50,000, and you get the first pick of sites...ridiculous. You can store your RV at the resort storage across the street. If you are a member, they will bring your RV to your site for you, one perk for the fifty grand. We checked in around 4:30 PM on Monday. The Reynolds are two sites from us and checked in about thirty minutes before us. Check-in time is 4:00 PM. We hooked up and headed to Old Juan's Cantina in Oceanside. We love this place, especially its huge margarit

My Man! Steps today - 14,442 Saturday, and so much for sleeping in. The Reynolds daughter Brook, son-in-law Aaron, granddaughter Kensley, and grandson Arik arrived this morning. Soon we heard Kensley and Arik at our door to say hello. They seemed excited to see us, and they gave big hugs to both of us. Then, they told us about school, and everything they have been doing, as much as an 8 and 10-year-old can say to you. Then back over to abuela and papa's RV.  Soon after, we were off to Pismo Beach. We drove to the left, went as far as we could, then turned around and headed toward the far-end gate. The part of the beach you can drive on was so short compared to before, but it was due to the recent storms. The Reynolds were ahead of us, and as we passed the first gate, a guy flagged us down. His truck was stuck, and he needed a tow to get out of the hole he was in. Barry said sure, and I texted the others to let them know what was happening. They pulled off of the beach highway and w

Week 52 – Theme "Future" – 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks This is my first year working on this year-long weekly writing prompts provided by Amy Johnson Crow and posted on her Generations Cafe Facebook page. I will do my best to write something each week.  THREET FAMILY PHOTO FUTURE PROJECT Back Row-Billie Mack, Donal Dean, Samuel, Wilma Sue, Willie, Floyd Junior, James Elice Front Row-Ernie, Sylvia, Bruce Travis, Clara Marie, Sandra Kay, Roger Dale The above photo is of my father’s family. My father was born Billie Mack Threet, AKA Billy Max Threet, and has ten siblings. I do not know when he changed the spelling of his first and middle names. This is a something I would like to narrow down in the future.  Another 2022 future goal I have is to write a small piece about each of his siblings and parents. I don’t know much about the early years of dad’s family or vital records dates, but my future goal of 2022 is to try to write down what I do know and possibly learn something new. H
