Launched in December 2025, this site will be a living archive for family memories and "receipts." My intent is to foster open communication and seek closure, though family dynamics are often as complex as peeling an onion. After a long period of refinement, this project is going live to offer a fresh perspective on our history. We have arrived to where we are today, but how did we get here? It is a work in progress; let’s see where the journey leads.

The plan is to take previous ramblings and make things a bit pithier. Brevity is what I will strive for keeping in mind that less is more. I do plan to provide “receipts”, but I will organize the information hierarchical to facilitate easier navigation, hopefully.

Daily status is included here only as an aside. During the two plus years of the COVID lockdown in California, I decided to find a way to communicate with others. I do not use social media, so a platform such as Facebook was not an option. I decided to create separate sites for each of my contacts where I could post information (and later, features were added to enable two-way communication). The Daily Status is shared among all sites. I will include it here even though it has become a place to post whatever may be on my mind on a given day as I digest current events. In addition to the security issues with using social media sites, the other reason I stay away from social media is to avoid the inane back and forth discussions often over politics. I enjoy discussing many topics including politics, but too many people are not able to keep it civil. Sorry in advance if I post something here that may be offensive to some. It’s never my intent to ruffle feathers, and I understand the only way to ensure feathers are not ruffled is to say nothing. Maybe I should not include the Daily Status section on this site.

Just a few videos - one for levity and another depicting calamity.

I like the “Master Brayton” part.
