I Researched at the Family History Library!

The chance to visit the Family History Library in Salt Lake City was one of the reasons I wanted to attend RootsTech 2012. I arrived in SLC on Sunday to have three days at the library before RootsTech kicked off on Thursday. I also found time to go back for a few hours on Saturday. Of course, that wasn't nearly enough time. I'll definitely be back.

You really can't tell how long the book and 

microfilm aisles are from these photos.

That's Kim von Aspern of Le Maison Duchamp on the far left in the beige sweater.

Kim took time Monday morning to show me and another newbie around FHL.

Thanks Kim.

I have no idea at this point exactly what I accomplished at FHL but I marked off most of the books and quite a few rolls of microfilm on my list. I'll start digging into that soon.
