Dear Friend,
I hope you had a wonderful summer. Personally, I had a wonderful August Work Period visiting communities across the district, rehabbing my foot and ankle following surgery in the spring, and even finding some time to celebrate my birthday with family and friends. Among the summer highlights was my son getting engaged in July (we are looking forward to his wedding next summer). Thanks again to everyone who sent such nice wishes for both my birthday and our family’s happy news.

Dear Friend,
Every year at this time I take a deep breath as Summer is winding down and kids (and parents) start getting ready to go back to school. We can see the days getting shorter and feel the urge to squeeze out just a few more days of carefree fun in the sun.
