Are we going to have assignments like we used to with alphabet A to Z . That was fun...

Good pictures. I haven't seen many grasshoppers here, either. At least, no yet.

gmom- Yes it is a coconut. I think she split it with a saw. She had all kinds of tools for rocks as she was a rock hound. Possibly she used some of them. Scooped it out then glued it together. Painted it, glued little cork feet on it and thin leather ears. Pipe cleaner tail. Go for it!! Good luck.

Hi Judy - I volunteer at two websites, FindAGrave and Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness (RAOGK). The assignments consist of a cemetery name and the name(s) of the deceased. Sometimes the cemetery is too far from me, and I turn the assignment down. And sometimes the requested graves don't exist at the cemetery. Records are not always accurate. But even if I don't find the grave I'm looking for, as long as I'm there I photograph numerous gravestones and then upload the pictures to FindAGrave, adding the names of the deceased to their database when necessary. Sometimes I discover that the names are already there, needing photos. I'm not the only person at the KT doing this. In fact, I started at RAOGK and then heard about FindAGrave here. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions. Susan
