Good morning, all:

All are invited to the former N&W depot at Boyce, Virginia, on Saturday, April 30, 2016, between noon and 3 PM.  There will be a cook out as well as Morse telegraph demonstrations in observance of Samuel Morse's birthday.  Although "Morse Day" is April 23, the April 30 date is selected so as to allow people to attend a Morse Day event elsewhere, then visit Boyce the following Saturday --as well as to send best wishes to telegraphers at DK Office that day if they are unable to travel

I hope you are able to visit.  Meanwhile, best wishes for a nice Autumn!
