icons to the

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
1999 - July - 24: Latest
updates, still many pages to be added but most of the navigation works.
Search page has been disabled for the time being.
New links added for Maritime Museum, Loxton's in Canada and other Loxton

1999 - July - 22: the Xoom site locked while they corrected a
server
problem. All this site was trashed by this problem and needed to be fully
uploaded. <sigh>
1999 - July - 14: First pages hit the web. FrontPage 98 was
used to build them and then it failed in a very big way. Into the silicon bin
with that program and I started using Dreamweaver 2 to build this site.
WOW!
What a great program.
