I took the first “AgWalk” on June 22, 2010. Since then, we’ve walked 246 times. I honestly can’t believe I’ve found that much to write about, but just like the weather, every day changes and is a new day with something new to share with our readers. As most of you know, my Aunt Jeanette has joined in the fun and it truly has become a family affair.

But I got to thinking the other day that as many stories as we’ve told about my grandparents, I’m not sure you’ve ever seen them. That happens with my work, especially since my office is out of my home. I speak with people on the phone, conduct interviews and “meet” them via email, but never see their faces. You’ve heard my grandparents’ voices but here they are for you to meet! This photo was taken soon after my daughter was born, just about exactly two years ago.

I hope in June four years from now, I’m giving you yet another update on my grandparents, and that I’m still sharing their stories. And I hope you have come to enjoy and cherish our stories, our history and my family.

Until we walk again …
