Hello...my name is Rene Roberta Haynes, and I live in Port Orchard, Washington. If you take a gander at my profile piccie, then you'll see why I am a rural crone: grey hair and trees!
I have a little home on 2.5 acres of mostly unworked land, with a lot of arboreal beings. I will be going back to school soon to learn horticulture and hone my desire to grow things. I will be turning some of my property into a native plant nursery to utilise for what I hope will be a thriving enterprise of landscape design, land restoration, and a ton of other things I have big ideas for.
I am really happy and excited to have stumbled onto this wonderful community! Right up my alley, as I recently discovered, as an adoptee, that my DNA contains mostly British, Irish, and Scottish roots that go way back, with some Scandinavian thrown in..and even some Neanderthal DNA!
I hope to make lots of friends here and have lots of fun. Sláinte!!
Welcome to the site and what an interesting story you have. Sounds like a beautiful part of the world. Let us know how you make out and would love to see some pictures.
That is so interesting about your DNA. I bet the Scandinavian could have something to do with the Saxon invasion of Britian during the Viking age, but who knows. That's what makes it all the more interesting.
I did not know they were testing for Neanderthal DNA, but often wonder that this is a pretty big missing link in humanity. Perhaps the Neandertals did not go extinct, but they live within us!

Hello to you from another Haynes on the Navajo Nation in Northern Arizona! My dad and his people were all from Kentucky, but who knows? Some where in the dark nether reaches, we may be cousins!
Glad you have found this place. It's a friendly group of folks around here, so hope you are enjoying all you see and hear on this wonderful site!
Take care and have a great day!

Nice to have you here. I wouldn't say that the grey hair makes you a crone though. I would say that it makes you distinguished. Anyways, I hope you enjoy the music, the forums, and the people here!

One can not profess to be of "GOD" and show intolerence and prejudice towards the beliefs of others.
