Reggie Miller Mural

The photo above was taken by my Frequent Traveling Sister during a quick trip to Indianapolis over the weekend. The mural by Pamela Bliss of Pacers great Reggie Miller is located in downtown Indy. We were lucky to catch quite a few Pacers games back in the day when Reggie played for the team.

The Sphinx & Pyramids, 1987

I'm at the end of a long Christmas break and looking again at slides converted to digital images. The photo above was taken by my Granny during a trip to Egypt in 1987. I'll try to share a few more of these tomorrow. Travels pick up really soon and time will be limited to go back through these for the next month.

The Old Tavern

The building above is the Old Tavern in Washington, Virginia. This is one of the oldest buildings in the town, dating back to 1740. George Washington surveyed the town. We stayed in "Little Washington" for a special dinner over the Christmas break. I had forgotten that distant Thornhill ancestors also lived in this area of nearby Fauquier Rappahannock County around the same time the town was surveyed. I need to pick up the family history research again in 2020.

Happy New Year
