Granpa

So, I sent a spit sample to one of the DNA ancestry sites. No real surprises. No polecats in the henhouse. But while others find out they are distant relatives to Kings, artists, or historical figures, it seems that the Spanish side was really just Visigoths. You know, that barbarian germanic tribe that left almost no art, almost no architecture, no written language, and who's only contribution to history was to sack Rome, almost wiping out western civilization and plunging Europe into the dark ages. Yup, sounds like my family alright. Oh yeah, they lost Spain to the Moors as well. Thanks Granpa! Very proud.
