PLANS FOR JULY 2008

Right now, I am in the process of seeing about trading our Grand Timber Lodge time for a week in July of 2008 on the Big Island of Hawaii. With this much advanced notice everyone should be able to see about coming to Hawaii then. I believe the resort would be on what is known as the Kona Coast. The Big Island is where all the volcanos are. Make sure you keep this in mind as you plan for leave time next year. It would be great if we could get the whole family there.

BIG CHANGES

I have now officially resigned as the baseball coach at RCHS and I am very relieved. The time requirements, constant attention that it required, and the fact that the job went from December to August was just getting too much. I feel like a weight has been lifted from me. I will continue to do football - it doesn't require anywhere near the time or commitment.

Exams start next week, so for the most part the year is over. I am really looking forward to this summer and hope we get lots of visitors (hint, hint, hint). Jennifer needs to make the pilgrimage with her significant other so he can pass inspection.

Joanna spoke to about 350 students on Monday and she did a fantastic job. The students were really impressed. I have 2 thank you notes from a couple of the classes that attended and I will forward them to Jo.

I am now into Harley mode as the weather has finally warmed and riding the bike to school. It is supposed to be in the 80s this weekend.
