All Roads Lead to
In the 40s, my aunt and uncle owned a cafe in Hobbs, NM. (My aunt is 3rd from the right). Hobbs was known as "Little Las Vegas" back then. There was an army base out on the north side of town but these boys at the counter look more like locals.The back counter looks pretty well stocked for a hot dog place.
As one who doesn't have a family history (or even an accurate last name for my father's side of the family), I really appreciate your sleuthing into your family tree.
In my life I've waited tables, raised sons, taught school, published books, and railed at politicians. I'm building a house, next to my son, where I can spend time with my granddaughter. I read, write, and dream about being immortal.

Smartz, I love all of your family photos. I love the stories and I love the family connection, something sorely lacking in my history.
I love your comments and support. They keep me looking for things to share in this incredible medium. PS how's the book coming?

It's addicting! I know so little about some of them, but enough to imagine a good story.
