My parents have been getting pretty big into the history of the area in which they live in Baker County. OK, sometimes I think they’re going a little nuts over it, but I do think it is pretty cool. I may not be nearly as interested in it as they are at this point in my life, but I still think it is a good thing to be interested in and to dig into. They’ve been doing all sorts of research–digging into newspaper archives, interviewing people–and documenting what they find. Anyway, I just wanted them and anyone else who reads this to know that I think they are way cool.

I’m also proud of my mom for volunteering and currently being the president of the Eastern Oregon Museum.
