Road to Riccarton

Monday night eight guys are coming to the house for chicken wings and movies of their recent golfing and whisky study trip to Scotland. Stan has been busy cutting up two hours of video clips and 1000 still photos into something reasonably entertaining for this demanding crew.

In the process, he uncovered footage of the brief geneological search he conducted in Riccarton, home of our great great great grandfather Adam and his son, Peter, who immigrated to the U.S. in the mid-1800s.

The search began, and ended, at this bus stop. Here's the snip from the movie. It's not exactly "Roots."
