    Welcome to the new Genealogy/Heritage forum

    I got great news yesterday. The town where my father grew up has a library with a nice genealogy collection and now they have put online the local newspaper 1896 - 1960. You know what I did yesterday. :D I found great things but most poignant was a letter to Santa from his next older sister for...

    Too Nice a Day (to stay indoors)

    It was sunny and warm (for March), perfect for getting outside and seeing/hearing birds.

    March 2022 Standing O's

    Oh, Olga, thank you so much for seeing what I hoped for in that LO. My DH did wonder about me when I took the photo.

    What Could Be

    The landscape was bleak in part because it was March but also because it is a decayed urban spot. More trees and butterflies could greatly enhance the it.

    Daily Ooos: March 26-27: Weekend Edition

    Happy first weekend of spring. Here it is snowing! Daffodils are in bloom but now bowed down in snow. That is really pretty common though. Had a mammogram yesterday with normal results reported by evening. Do you remember when they were on x-ray films? No same day turn around then. This is sort...

    That's a wow photo! Love it and the delightful balance of the elements countering the crease of the paper. Great colors too.

    A blast from the Past - Genealogy in the Gallery - March

    I did this soon after coming to Oscraps. A lot of my heritage LOs were done before that or not posted online.

    A striking look with that handsome bird. Like the quartered paper, centered cluster and then the bird and text working off them.

    Baby Steps into Spring

    Spring doesn't come here all at once, but we were happy with what we had this beautiful day.

    Welcome to the new Genealogy/Heritage forum

    What a great idea! If you know me, you know I am obsessed with genealogy/family history. That is where I started with digital scrapbooking. Long ago, at another site before it closed, I ran a monthly heritage challenge and wrote a blurb, illustrated with a LO, on genealogy for the monthly...

    JAN|FEB|MARCH 2022 - Come and share any of your recent Mixed Media projects.

    Ona, those are wonderful! So glad you shared. I've got a mixed media drawing sitting while I decide whether it's done. I call these mental landscapes. This one is ink, collage and colored pencil. It doesn't have a title as yet.

    Books set in Australia?

    I mostly read mysteries and like a series in Australia by Jane Harper, starts with one called The Dry in 2016. We've watched some YouTube things on Australia and a few movies from the library set there, but I still don't know that much about it either.

    Daily Ooos: March 19-20: Weekend Edition

    Chris @faerywings it seemed the count might be off, but I never checked to see for sure. I knew it was coming and that was all that mattered! :D Hugs to Cait and all of you over Dilly, but glad she had company at the end. Today was the computer genealogy group that runs 9:30 to 2:00 and I do...

    Daily Ooos: Wednesday, March 16

    It's feeling very spring today. Yesterday I posted a think spring LO: Chris @faerywings I've been afraid to ask about Quilliam as I'm sure he's no longer at the library. Your countdown image is so right for all of us! Just got out of a Zoom meeting hard on the heels of a webinar, so need to...
