NW Okie's Journey

Have you ever traveled over Wolf Creek Pass between South Fork and Pagosa Springs, Colorado, stopping at the scenic overlook that overlooks the beautiful valley north of Pagosa Springs?

The images on the left were taken on a dirt trail at that overlook of some aspen trees that set beside, where travelers have carved their initials into the trees. Are your initials on these famous landmarks at the scenic overlook?

This week we pay tribute to Armistice (Veterans) Day (11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, in 1918, when World War I came to an end with much to the disgrace of Germany and loss of lives of British and European soldiers. My Great grand Uncle (Robert Lee Warwick) enlisted with British forces and thought in that war. Read more concerning Armistice Day, 11 November 1918 in this week's The OkieLegacy Weekly Ezine/Tabloid.

I am still searching for a clue to connect the two following MCGILL pioneers. It is not easy am trying to find that needle in the haystack to connect my MCGILLs To the Mcgill-Hallock-Lusk family. You can view Mcgill-Hallock-Lusk Family Tree. This last link is the MCGILL lineage I have NOT made a connection to at this time. My Paris Pioneers-Master over at Ancestry.com. If you have an account, just look, search for paristimes.

Before I turn things over to Sadie Sadie, the Pug Editor, I want to share a clipping my friend, Joel Berg, sent me of an interview he made concerning a recent Sun City Anthem TV station recorded broadcast interview he took part in for a series, "Freedom Is Not Free," as a salute to veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces. Joel said It was a fun experience for him, and he hoped that you would enjoy it also. Here is the link to that interview: Interview with Joel Berg, a Retired Quartermaster, Sergeant Manny Peven Post #65, Jewish War Veterans of the United States of America ~ www.ca-tv.com.

Good Night, Good Luck! Here is to our Veterans of All Wars since then (WWI)!
