Updating

I spent three hours this morning updating the family reports on the blog with new pictures, new births, etc. Last time I did it was about 6 months ago so I thought it was time. First I publish the information in my tree to a file system I have, then add new pictures to slideshows, copy the files to a host server and then edit each individual report that can be read by relatives who have any interest. Of course, very few do and it always brings up the question why I keep doing it. Probably because there is only one other person who does have interest enough in our mutual family history to spend some of his time doing the same because we feel someday some generation will want to know where they came from and we will have done all of the work for them.  Personally, I would have liked very much to have a documented history of our family a long time ago but no one had the time or interest to pursue it. I could have learned a lot more from aunts, uncles, grandfathers and grandmothers when I was young but that was the problem, I was young.

I was checking the weather in Estepona, Spain and it will be in the low 90's all week. That's way to hot for me. Now we have 22c with cloudy skies and that's fine. The hydraingia's in front of flat are almost all in full bloom and they look beautiful.

Tego ranka sp臋dzi艂em 3 godziny nad aktualizowaniem blogu o nowe zdj臋cia cz艂onk贸w rodziny, tak偶e  tych nowo narodzonych itp Ostatni raz, kiedy to robi艂em to by艂o oko艂o 6 miesi臋cy temu, wi臋c pomy艣la艂em, 偶e  czas to zrobi膰. Najpierw publikuj臋 informacje w moim drzewie do systemu plik贸w, kt贸ry  mam, a nast臋pnie dodaj臋 nowe zdj臋cia do pokazu slajd贸w, kopiuj臋 pliki na serwer, a nast臋pnie edytuj臋 ka偶d膮 indywidualn膮 informacj臋, kt贸ra mo偶e by膰 odczytana przez krewnych, kt贸rzy s膮 tym zainteresowani. Oczywi艣cie, bardzo niewielu z nich to robi i ten fakt zawsze wywo艂uje pytanie, dlaczego ja to kontynuuj臋. Prawdopodobnie dlatego, 偶e jest jeszcze jedna osoba, kt贸ra interesuj臋 si臋 na tyle naszymi wzajemnymi , rodzinnymi powi膮zaniami , 偶e sp臋dza troch臋 czasu robi膮c to samo, co ja, poniewa偶 czujemy, 偶e  kiedy艣 kt贸ra艣 z  generacji b臋dzie chcia艂a wiedzie膰, sk膮d  pochodzi, a my przygotowali艣my dla nich t臋 prac臋. Osobi艣cie, chcia艂bym bardzo posiada膰 udokumentowan膮 histori臋 naszej rodziny dawno temu, ale nikt nie mia艂 czasu ani ochoty, aby j膮 realizowa膰. M贸g艂bym by艂 wiele nauczy膰 si臋 od ciotek, wujk贸w, dziadk贸w i bab膰, kiedy by艂em m艂ody, ale problemem by艂o to, 偶e by艂em m艂ody.

 Sprawdza艂em pogod臋 w Estepona w Hiszpanii i przez ca艂y tydzie艅 b臋dzie mniej ni偶  90F (32C). To i tak dla  mnie za gor膮co. Teraz mamy 22C, zachmurzone niebo i to jest w porz膮dku. Hortensje naprzeciwko  naszego mieszkania s膮 prawie wszystkie w pe艂nym rozkwicie i pi臋knie wygl膮daj膮.
