Hello from Minnesota! Cleaning out space, letting go of stuff that no longer fits on my journey. Reflecting on my travels, as an integrating two spirited, son, & father, handling things that used to baffle me, neither living in the past nor closing the door on it, blessed by the support of my emerging family of choice. Thanks to the ancestors, those who share this journey. Peace love joy. Wichozani! Mitakuye Oyasin, “we are all related” “Wir sind all Verwanten” “nous sommes tous relies.”

Uzes Place auz Herbes August 2008
After discovering that the Chappelear-Chapelier Family had come from Languedoc and sharing with Peg in 2007 that her people came from French "mushroom" country of truffles (la Truffe) I was delighted to have email contact with Jean Luc Chapelier, a french cousin and genealogist who took time to give me a tour of the beautiful country of our shared ancestors. I thought of him a lot when I visited Maryland and Virginia last week to find the path of the Chappelears-Chapeliers in the New World. Here is the Place aux Herbes as we viewed it prior to sitting for a lunch in August of 2008.
