Welcome

Tim Hinds.com was originally created for family members and friends to stop by and find out the latest information and gossip coming from us in Tennessee.  This was back in the late 90's before social media was the new thing.

Over the years the Internet has evolved from what we called personal websites to what became known as blog sites.  That then led to todays incarnation of social media sites where everyone has an opportunity to make themselves known on the internet on sites such as Facebook and Twitter.  Clearly I missed the social media boat launch.

Our Family

We are a typical family of seven individuals in our home today.  Three of us are human and the other four are categorized as two cats, and two dogs.  It could easily be said that the cats and dogs also consider themselves as human…

Genealogy

I believe it was in 2000 that I received a family history book from my parents who had received a copy from other family members I think. At first I browsed through it and set it down not to be touched for several months. I then picked it up again and started reading it again. The family history book was compiled by Donald Wright and in it was information about a person named James J. Hinds.

Retro Computing

This is where I go to find my "Happy Place".  It is my hobby to relieve the stresses of today's modern life, and to take me back to a time that just allowed me to have fun.

Autism Awareness

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex developmental disorder that can cause significant social, communication and behavioral challenges.

As most of our family and friends know, our son Matthew was born with this disorder.  We have been blessed with the progress that our son has made over the years dealing with this disorder but there is much more to be learned about ASD.
