Enough material there to write your own War & Peace, Lightning. Takes patience for a person to research their family tree and find the desired info. Interesting find you have found here. Thank you for sharing.

good stuff, L-rod.

The pool was in the shape of a keyhole and I would lie belly down on the warm concrete slab and watch the icy water flow from the heart of the earth. I would put my face in the churning pool and drink what had fallen as rain centuries before. It had a soft taste and a texture that made it feel almost thick and nutritious. It tasted like time in liquid form steeped through the Great Plains, a rich tea of buffalo hooves and indian flint dripped slowly through the capillaries of the Ogallala Aquifer which runs all the plumbing in the Hill Country.

"it tasted like time in liquid form steeped through the Great Plains, a rich tea of buffalo hooves and indian flint dripped slowly through the capillaries..." love that poetic big picture compression. nice.

confession: whenever i hear the expression 'family tree,' i think of that dangerfield one-liner... 'i looked up my family tree, found out i was the sap'...
