Slow on updates for a while...

I know many of you have been sending in some wonderful photos and information for the website. Please keep them coming. I apologize for not having any new updates in a while. I just had to have my 42 year old horse put down and I have not been in the right state of mind since his passing. Given some time I will be back working on the site soon. Thanks for your understanding.

Another successful trip...

I took another trip with a friend to the Pawtucket Public Library today. Since I've already used the folders I started looking through all the old Pawtucket Times newspapers on the microfilm machine. I really have to thank the staff for putting up with me asking all sorts of techinical questions about the machine and scanner that made them get other lens and the manual! I made sure to thank them over and over again. These people are amazing. I only hope they realize how much their work helps people.

I found some fabulous information during the 5 hours I sat in that chair and stared at old newspapers. Yes you read that right. I sat there for FIVE hours. I made it through all the May, June, July and first two days of August of 1934 so far. I think the staff was getting a kick out of me sitting there for so long.

I will definitely be heading back again as well as to some libraries in Providence at the suggestion of some of the staff.

I just love how the pieces of the puzzle are coming all together.

I'm still receiving e-mails which is wonderful. Please keep them coming!

I have not received my copy of the Gansett DVD from Cox. I'm hoping they send it soon. I'm DYING to see that special.

Thanks for reading.
