How far back can Bleeb trace his roots?

spent half his life tracing that

Junebugs are up next.

We got as far as the late 1700’s tracing my father’s ancestry before stopping, even though there were more records available to keep going. Someday I’d like to do the same for my mother’s side of the family, using only the mothers of each generation, and see where that goes.

I just updated my grandfather’s records, I couldn’t believe how much info they were missing! Ironically, he spent ten years of his life doing ancestry…before computers, if there’d have been computers then he would have been the first to own one and internet!

This isn’t realistic at all.

By the time they got the computer to boot, and it finished downloading and installing the set of four mandatory 3-gigabyte Windows updates “to optimize your user experience”, they’d have died of old age.

No Bleeb! They have antennas, but they’re not relatives!

Time flies when you’re a mayfly.

Time is relatively, relevant.

Time, time, time is on my side! For a few decades anyway.

Wow what a uh life to live

mayflies don’t have mouths

Wonder if that was a record breaking life span! Keep searching……you must never know.

These guys are cute!

Better bookmark that page…and quick!

Great one John, love your art!…

On Monday, not enough ‘greats’.

Ha! Not a kot of time to do research!
