My Dad and I spent this past weekend delving into our family history.  We set out to discover anything we could about my great-great-grandparents following the McCormick line backward.  Dad had found where they were buried so we started there and also found my great-great-great-grandfather buried there as well.  We also found some information about what farms they owned in South Dakota and Minnesota.  Dad and I also toured the town my great-grandparents lived in and he showed me the house he was born in.  The house used to be the small town hospital and is now a bed and breakfast.  He thinks its awesome that he could one day sleep in the house he was born in, though there is a chance he was actually born a few blocks away in a house that used to be a clinic.  He is going to write a book about his great-grandparents and we found a wealth of information for him this weekend.  We also had a great time camping out and improvising when we discovered we had forgotten things like pillows and cooking utensils.
