We leave today for the Czech Republic. Dad got an email from Olga this morning saying that the Smejkal houses at Makov 8 and Drazice 50 are still there, and a Jan Smejkal lives at Makov 8. She has scheduled us to visit the houses and meet the owners, as well as visit with the local priest and see the church.
Just a side note on what a relief it will be to be on vacation. I have been feeding and trying to tame the stray kittens in our back yard for the last two months. We have adopted one kitty, one kitty hopefully is being adopted, and one kitty was put to sleep this morning with feline leukemia. Now, as I try to write this last blog before I leave, the mother cat has a full-grown squirrel down on the ground with a deathgrip around it's neck. She is one tough mama. Won't have anything to do with the Fancy Feast in the trap 10 feet away.
I think I will have to leave this for later.
Good luck and have fun! Can't wait to hear what you find and see pictures of the area!!
