<DIV>Well, I have been copying stories and going to some of the listed websites
and adding information from them to my family genealogy information! The stories
involve the history of my parents and of me! I have grandchildren. Isn't that
what genealogy is all about. Telling stories to our grandchildren? I</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It sparked my memory and it gave me pictures to show my kids and grandkids
so they would understand what I'm talking about. When we go to Janzen Beach Mall
and ride the merry go round together, now they'll be able to see what the
amusement park looked like and understand how old the horses are (and that
they were carved by prisoners! I'd never heard about that
before). </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It might not be history from 200 years ago, but it is history about my
family's day to day life. That's important to me! Thank you everybody for your
input. </DIV>

the ones who have been unsubscribing today? They must not have
memories of Portland as we do. I feel bad for them, not experiencing
what we have.. as in telling of our good times &
happy memories has been so much fun for me.. I almost felt young
again : ) & I agree with you Dan.</FONT></DIV>
