Boekel Evening Skating
Tuesday, 5-July-2011 - Boekel - Tonnie came to see us off. He was still recovering from a broken shoulder. We skated 27 km before we took a break. It was a smooth route--super skating. 17 skaters--good for 37 km.
I was born in 1949. We lived by a big hickory tree, near a creek on a corner of my grandpa's farm in Amelith, a church community five miles from the edge Bay City, Michigan, USA. I often wondered if this tree was standing when my ancestors Christina Barbara Feinauer and Johann Georg Weiss arrived here from Bavaria one hundred years earlier. See my "Big Hickory Tree" post in this blog.
