The Atlanta Family History Expo is coming up this weekend. I’ve spent hours poring over the agenda to determine the classes that I plan to attend.

I’ll be there too! Hopefully we can meet while we’re there. You have me a little worried about the fact that you’ve spent “hours pouring over the agenda”… I haven’t even looked at it yet!!!! EEK! Guess I better get goin’ on it!

Hi Joanne! I know from past experience that there will be multiple sessions at the same time that I want to attend, so I spend some time winnowing down my choices.
I hope we get to meet!
Wonderful to actually meet you in person, and hear your thoughts about social media at the two panel discussions.
