Since the birthday celebration, things have been quiet and not much has been happening except the fires plaguing California and Nevada. With all the smoke , our area has been listed has hazardous and we've been told to stay inside as much as possible.
One positive is that I have been working on our family genealogy and have been discovering more about our O'Neill side since the Champness family and my brother have taken the Big Y500 DNA. It shows we are from the O'Neills of the Fews and the Clanaboy O'Neills. Just hope to find the exact area that my great grandfather Patrick O'Neill came from. It seems likely it is Antrim and possibly Portglenone, Ireland.
We are having our main bathroom re-tiled and plumbed, so there is lots of activity happening in our house. Besides that over the weekend my niece, Renee and her husband Mike, their friends and my daughter, Keri and her husband Eric met for lunch at the Overland and had a wonderful visit.
Will update with more news on our genealogy progress in the near future.
