The Blog has never been my favourite place to post, but it’s due time, and Mark was finally able to find the password so we could get back at it. First off, for anyone who doesn’t know, I need to make an announcement.

In October, on the 16th of 2008, Leonore Frances McKenna Hedgecoe died peacefully in Richmond Hill at the Hill House Hospice. Her life was a valiant testament to her unyeilding strength, and we’re all so honoured to have had her in our lives.

It’s taken my a while to get to this, for those of you who know me, you know how hard all of this has been, and why it’s taken me so long to get back to our project. Not that you ever really stop gathering the information or filing it all away… But winter is such a slow time for us up here in Canada to start with, and for me personally this winter has been especially difficult.

I’m thinking of putting a dedication up to Gran on the site, we’ll see how far I get with it all… But I’ve opened things up again, and we’re back to business… With the summer months coming, and all those graveyards waiting for us to be out digging around, who can contain the excitement?

On another personal note, a thanks to my friends and family who have helped me get through. You all rock, but then, you knew that already.
With love,
Jenn
