Feldkirch, Austria. Our primary destination. I have a winter scene postcard of the view on the left on my desk a the office. We just heard this evening from a very, very distant cousin, that he has found documented evidence of our Great Great Grandfather Michael's origins in Tosters, a village adjoining Feldkirch. At right is St. John's Kirch near the town center.

Blenke Haus, Mango, Florida We will be venturing out from here. Planning for our Roadtrip has begun in earnest. I'm finding that Google Earth 5.0 provides fantastic fly-overs of our planned route and apparently can be stored for replay during the trip for a birds-eye perspective. Of course Larry reminds me that there are such things as "maps" and pencil and paper, but I need to justify my netbook in some way.
