But I would like to “walk the footsteps” of my ancestors here in America.
Perhaps I will when I retire get one of my family members that are good at traveling.
Take my anxiety pills and get in a plane & the car 🫣 and go see.
Meanwhile pictures of these sites and old homesteads and graves online will have to do.
