July 6 to 12

I have been trying to work on my two newsletters with some success. I have spent a couple of hours working on the Kipp names in the 1850 US Census. I have also been working on creating a file of captions for the last two batches of B/W negatives I scanned. The captions are already hand written but need to be typed into a word file next to the corresponding file name of the scanned image.

Monday Walked 10.6 km.
Tuesday Walked 7.1 km.

Wednesday
We watched two movies: The Dutchess which is based on the life of the Dutchess of Devonshire and The Librarian: Curse of the Judas Chalice. The three Librarian movies are fun adventure. Sort of like the Indiana Jones of the information world.

Everything was rained out for the day, although we did get in a short half hour walk later in the day. Walked 6.7 km.


Sunday
The weather turned out better today. It was supposed to be sunny all day but it clouded in. We did get to Upper Canada Village and walked around the encampment and looked at sutlers row. We also visited at the St. Lawrence Branch United Empire Loyalists' booth. We then attended the War of 1812 Grand Tactical reenactment. It was a great show this year. They didn't do a particular battle but did display costumes of the period along with battle tactics etc. The Crown forces won!
Walked 10 km.
