Shenandoah! A beautiful valley and a winding river -- how fortunate we are to live here! And since I love photography, I'm taking plenty of pictures and sharing them here. You'll find other subjects too. If you like historic sites or gardens or animals, you'll find them on this blog. Please visit often and feel free to comment.

Hi Linda!
I'm gathering material for a book on my FRESCHL family and have just discovered the connection between my FRESCHL family and Curt (Kurt) Freshel (FRESCHL)!Curt was my 1st cousin, 2x removed, and I have his ancestry (male line) back to abt 1740 to a little Bohemian village. The family is Jewish (another reason he probably changed his name). Please get in touch!
He is not on my website yet as I just discovered the connection.
