Okay cue the music:
Two other things happened as I was scanning photos tonight that I think are amazing....
1. I found a photo that said, "Henry and Lena," but no last name. Since I was scanning the Holz photos, I assumed they were Holzes. I went to the genealogy book that my mom kept and turned to the section that I felt would be the Holz section. I missed by just a few pages, but the page I turned to was Henry Hanson and Mabel Lena Holz. Wow! In a million years, I'd never be able to turn to just the right people again.
2. In the photo album are a number of other kinds of papers. On one particular page was a birth announcement. That baby, I'm meeting on Monday. Her daughter and I have been close allies in the most recent months. I'm very much looking forward to meeting them. I told the daughter that I had found her mom's birth announcement. She replied, "Very cool!! Today is her birthday that is too funny!!" So, I sent her her birth announcement, via facebook, for her birthday.
I'm not one who believes in coincidences, so this is all very...well....Sorry to be redundant, but....
