A genetic Golden Spike

Not unlike May 10, 1869, our reunion in June will be historic for families on both coasts.

It was on that date in Promontory Point, Utah, that a golden spike was hammered into a uniting rail track and trains from both coasts butted noses for the first time.

In mid-June, 2008, families from West and East will no doubt hug, cry and smile at one another, face to face, for the first time.

Like the photo below at the Golden Spike Ceremony, I believe we, too, will make lasting memories.
