What did we learn today? Part II

Crime scene tape covered the area. Word spread quickly. Genealogists steered clear of the area. Even after everything was taken care of, some still were afraid to venture near the scene. 

I have to say I told ya so!

You guessed it. Another elevator bit the dust. Too many genealogists with too many books on an elevator at the Hilton. Everything is fine now. All elevators are working again and I even rode the rogue elevator all the way down to the first floor.

Today, we learned to be kind to the elevator and it will be kind to you.

The Society Showcase LIVE in the Exhibit Hall tonight was relaxed, crowded, and fun. Lots of great door prizes were given away tonight. Ancestry.com had so many tickets turned in that they gave away 3 International full year memberships and a free DNA testing. Almost everyone agreed that it was over too soon.

It was a beautiful evening and the line to the buffet was a bit of a wait, but it was worth every minute.
An enjoyable evening of refreshments and music at a garden party.
 The talking tree bid us farewell as we left the botanical gardens.

 Thank you to Find My Past and Fort Wayne, Indiana for a wonderful evening!
