The one problem with a weeklong vacation is getting back
into the grove again. Where I should be
doing household chores and genealogy all I want to do is sit on the couch and
sleep. Yep. Once again I need a vacation from my
vacation.
Today my couch sitting needs will be meet while I watch
the live stream session from RootsTech.
I am bummed that I was unable to make the trip this year, but here is
hoping for next year! Instead I will sit
here in Virginia, where it snowed again last night, and do my vacation laundry
while listening to some of the best in the field talk about my favorite subject.
What’s on the agenda?
Well the schedule for live streaming sessions is
up on the RootsTech website. You can
also download the syllabus for classes to read. I even downloaded
the app so I can take the conference with me.
I may have to run errands so listening to the sessions from my
smartphone is an option. Oh, and don’t
forget about twitter. Make sure you look
for #RootsTech to keep track of what is going on, thoughts from fellow
genealogists, and to be a part of the community here at home and there in Salt
Lake City.

Now… back to laundry…
This was from Marianne, I pressed the wrong button on my phone and deleted it. Sorry, I goofed!
ReplyDeleteI sympathize. I'm bummed out, too, here in CT, but isn't the new livestreaming tech grand? And thanks for the syllabus download! I didn't have that yet. This is all such a preview of the future. Think how much closer technology has brought us in the last ten years, and think of the next ten.
I'm expecting StarTrek transporters any day now. Then we can be in Nevada and doing our laundry at the same time . . . .
