Happy Hanuka

Happy Hanuka to all who celebrate.

Last night was the first night of the holiday, and my family (parents, siblings, nephews, niece) celebrated in the Caribbean.

It is now 1:45 in the afternoon - but still the first day of Hanuka - as like all Jewish holidays, it runs from sunset to sunset. I spent a couple hours at a beach - it's a nice way to celebrate.

I don't expect to do much genealogy research over the next week - or much blogging - but spending time with the extended family often yields stories to preserve.
