GAGs - GeniAus' Gems - 30 January 2016

I haven't promised that I will always publish GeniAus' Gems on a Friday but I usually do because it ties in with the Follow Friday Blogging Theme. On Friday this week I was winging my way to Salt Lake City for the Rootstech Conference.

It's now Saturday evening in Utah and I'm finally getting around to sharing my finds from last week. I shan't imagine that I'll have time to post next week...but we'll see.


1. Anne reminds us that there are always more than one side to a story.

For those of us who can't get to Rootstech, it's wonderful to read what you are doing and who you are meeting. The pictures are great too.
