Rabbit rabbit rabbit!

It’s the first of March (even if this email doesn’t go out until the 2nd because of a tech glitch!), a day on which The Legal Genealogist expected to be explaining gleefully that, no, she wasn’t going to be at RootsTech this year and, in fact, there wouldn’t be many upcoming events this month — all because of a long-planned milestone-birthday-bucket-list trip to Turkey and Egypt culminating in a Nile cruise.

Sigh…

There still won’t be many upcoming events this month… and at the moment I’m not 100% sure the trip will be happening either. The cruise company is communicating optimistically but notes that’s based on “hoping the situation de-escalates quickly.”

Sigh…

Okay, pity party done. Let’s talk about what is coming up on the schedule because, as always I’d love to have you come along, to the extent possible, on the trip.
