CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@bethroots It was tricky because my ancestors have been in America forever. But I thought this was a great way to show pride for our ancestors.

I am going back and getting the Americas one.

#Ancestry has a table with really cool high quality #stickers. Germany, England, Italy, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, were grabbed up extremely quick. Possibly an indication of attendees that have ancestors from those areas.

@bethroots It's so tempting. MH is the only one that I ported over my DNA vs doing a kit. Historically, their booth has these huge towers that are storerooms for their DNA kits at a very nice price.

Ok, you just convinced me. One t shirt and 5 DNA kits to share.

@bethroots @Appalachian Many thanks! I have promised myself only one T-shirt and no DNA kits.

@PostcardsFromParadise Absolutely and everyone can check out their cousins that are attending in person or online.

@epilanthanomai It is in reverse. I live in the burbs of ATL. Thanks for reminding me that it is time to schedule a trip to the ATL Botanical Gardens!

The start of travel to #RootsTech begins ...

Heading down off the mountain towards the big city today. I have not been home since July when we bought the bungalow (long story). @Appalachian

I don't think the baby sharks & Auggie Doggie are happy to leave their porch in #Appalachia for the ATL burbs.

Fly out to SLC, before dawn, on Wednesday and thrilled to present for #WikiTree at the largest global #Genealogy Conference.
