Crush a Can Day You know you want to, so don’t hold back when it comes to squashing those cans on Crush a Can Day. Not only does this day give you the opportunity of crushing, squeezing and bending cans into satisfyingly small shapes, it’s also a chance to share can compression fun with family and friends. A fantastic stress buster, can squashing is also a great way to get more cans into a smaller space at recycling facilities, so get squishing those cans! https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/crush-a-can-day/

Ancestor Appreciation Day Many of us are completely unaware of our ancestors and the lives they lived, yet they almost certainly went a long way towards shaping our habits, traditions and values today. Fortunately, the annually-celebrated Ancestor Appreciation Day gives people a reminder to learn more about those who came before us. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/ancestor-appreciation-day/

World Tourism Day Travel has been said to broaden the mind, exploring the world and seeing the broad vistas and cultures that the people of the world offer. Tourism can describe travel for pleasure both foreign and domestic, and has been happening as long as long as mankind. Tourism Day is your opportunity to broad your own world a little, find a location you’ve always wanted to make time to visit, and finally get around to making time to do it. So find your inner traveler and get out there and experience the places you’ve always wanted to see. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/tourism-day/

3. Ancestor Appreciation!

I wish I could learn more about my family. We did a little genealogy around 30 years ago, but hit a lot of dead ends.

4. I was at a genealogy seminar a few weeks ago

and they mentioned to keep going back over the ones that you have in your family tree as more and more information is becoming available. Who knows you might find more or one you have already discovered that will lead you to something you were looking for.

5. Thanks.

I wish I had asked more questions when they were all still alive. I would love to take a trip to Europe to track down old church records, etc.
