Reunion

My family is planning a reunion of the offspring of my grandparents. This year it has been setup by my niece and nephew and it will be held in south central Pennsylvania.

All of the children of my grandparents are deceased as well as most of my older first cousins. At age 69 I am the 2nd from the youngest grandchild of the 39 grandchildren.
Of the 39, I believe that 16 are still living. The oldest grandchild was born in January 1911 and the youngest in February 1941.

There are 121 great grandchildren, that I am aware of. The oldest was born in 1942 and the youngest in 1975. There are 136 great great grandchildren that I have information on. I'm sure there are more that are not included in my genealogy data base. The oldest was born in 1965 and the youngest in May 2007.

Of the 136 great great grandchildern only 6 males carry the Reinsel name.

Beaver Lodge

Most often beavers build their lodges in the water but this one built one on the court. Her odometer recorded 12 miles today. Mostly from the back yard to the street.

Bamboo

I've spent the last 2 days cutting dead bamboo and mom has been carrying it up to a pile on the street. Still have a bunch to cut and carry. The pile on the street is getting to be too high for mom to reach and it keeps growing sideways. I'll post a picture later.
