Saturday we went to the Arizona Capitol Museum. It was nice to take a little day trip with the family. The kids loved it, even Heidi. The director of the museum was there and started up a conversation with Phil. He was pretty insightful and made the visit more interesting. Plus, Phil was able to get some information to help with with... you guessed it - family history. Turns out this guy is not only the director of the museum, but of the Arizona State Library- Archives and Public Records. He knows a lot about where to go to find info and historical records. He directed us to the Arizona Railway Museum in Chandler and also printed out some info on what Arizona historical records are available and where to find them. Great day for everyone and now we have another fun place to go visit as a family.

You light up my life! I haven't heard that song since I was kid! Nice music! You may have had it for a while - my speakers might have been off! Way to go Phil get all that geneology done!
