Cedar Chest Pictures

Margaret asked me to post these pictures of her Mother's cedar chest. The pictures also show some of the items that were in the cedar chest.

Cousin Marge thought it would be fun if the rest of us cousins would post pictures of our Mother's cedar chest and/or for you cousins that have your own chest to tell us about it.

Either post to the blog yourself, or send it to me and I will be happy to post either or both story and pictures. You are not limited to how many pics or how long your story.

Cedar Chests are also called Hope Chests......so we HOPE to hear and see what you post or want posted.

E-Mail me, cousin Bob at: connie_bob@cox.net I will send you my home address, don"t want to put it here on the blog for the public.

Stev-A-Rino was in Reno/Now going back to Sac.

Received an email from cousin Steve Rodrigues (Professionally known as Steve Garland) and is the son of Margaret Castro Rodrigues Dambley and brother to Tony Castro. He was up to his a** in alligators and asked me if I would do a post for him in the blog. He wrote:

Hey-Tony and his son David are coming to see me play this Saturday night. I have been trying to find the time to post the info on the family blog, but have been in Reno and all points inbetween. If you have time today, could you do me a big favor, and post on the blog where I'll be with the band Saturday in case any of the Sacramento area cousins want to come out? Tony and David are staying overnight, so they could see them too.

My band, the"Rhythm Vandals" are at "Coach's" restaurant and club, inside the "Strikes Family Entertainment Center" in Rocklin this Saturday night 6/14 from 9p-12m.

LOVE YA ALL,
Steve
