Today is a SPECIAL DAY - a day to remember and HONOR those who have passed long before us - our PIONEER ANCESTORS.
This is Ephraim K. Hanks - one
tough cookie. He is our great- grand-father and he kicked some (excuse the expression) ever-lovin' butt in his day! Super-tough-dude who saved hundreds of lives and tamed the west like no other. I won't write about him, as I've done that in the past, but I will take the time to
THANK HIM and so many other ancestors who gave so much so we can have what we have today.


Now you go have a good day! I'll talk to you tonight when I get home! Promise!
Enjoy the song (now playing) called "Pioneer"!

Berta, thanks so much for all your great journal posts. I loved this one about Ephraim Hanks. We get so busy that we don't take time to properly think about our roots and the strength we come from. This gives us great courage to continue on. Thanks for your inspiration and timely messages!Love Gwen
I love everything about him and I'm not even related. But I love history like this and his story and heritage are truly inspiring.
