4) Respond to my Saturday Night Genealogy Fun challenge, posted on www.geneamusings.com soon after 12 noon Pacific time (that's 1900 GMT for those who understand time zones).

5) Go to a local genealogical society program, or go to a library or repository with genealogical resources.   I'm going to the San Diego Genealogical Society meeting on Saturday morning to hear Barbara Renick make two presentations.

6) Do you still have material in your "genealogy piles" that needs to be added to your genealogy software program? I collected 127 pages two weeks ago at Carlsbad Library, and need to start adding that to my database.

7) Spend time with your family doing fun things.  I'm still recovering from Grandpa Camp, but have some photos to offload from the camera. 

Whatever you decide, please tell us about your genealogy endeavors on a social network or in a blog post. You never know when your experiences may stimulate or encourage others to do useful genealogy work.
