What a great conference day!! I admit, I'm still unwinding. Spent the day with the window open and a slight breeze. All comfy in my rocker watching speaker after speaker talking just to me. Occasionally I would sit at the table and watch the comments rolling by on my laptop. For me it was a perfect learning experience.
The speakers were excellent. When Judy Russell sent in her papers for this conference there was no Covid 19 and yet her lecture was spot on. Looking into pandemics of the past shed so much light on what we are going thru today. It's nothing new!
Now I know that I need to get up on Saturday morning and watch Roots Less Traveled on NBC. It's WDYTYA for real people; not celebrities. Seems someone was listening.
A question I have asked for years was answered. Is there a place where descendants of slave-owners can share names of slaves. Yes. https://beyondkin.org
Did you know there is such a thing as "quick and dirty" family trees? Clue: has to do with DNA
New words in my vocabulary: Knowledge card, snippet, organic. Watch out google, here I come.
The next two days are workshops and picking my On Demand lectures. From there the conference lasts from September 15, 2020-March 15,2021. During this time I will have access to all Conference material.
Would I do it again? Ya betcha.
Was it frugal? Absolutely!!
