I've spent nearly all day visiting with a cousin whom I've never met. His mother was my father's first cousin and they both wrote to each other until they died. Then contact was lost. But today John drove here to meet us for the first time. He had only 5 hours and we really crammed in a lot of stuff. I showed him photos of his grandmother's family in Finland, plus many photos of relatives he had heard of but never met. He wanted to see my genealogy program and now he is all hepped up about putting one on his computer so I can send him the family data. He has a Mac, but I'm sure that won't be a problem. Now I'll work on getting him to join Finlander! To top it all off, he took us out to dinner and we found out that we were all chocoholics - so we ended up eating dessert: a 6-layer chocolate cake topped with fudge and ice cream! 
And we found out that we have some other family characteristics such as the same eyebrows, forehead and ears. All in all a fun day - and the weather cooperated with lots of sunshine!

I congratulate you for having a smart second cousin! - As you know I prefer Macs also. No hazzle. Works like charm. There are genealogy programs with really nice graphics and report possibilities, easy to use etc.
