Listen to the Music

The weather cooperated , hooray! We had a blast listening to the melodious tones of the band and got to watch Lori & Heide crank up the torches to play with glass on Saturday morning. Margie and Maryann (oops, not pictured!) added some bling & ambiance to our outdoor happenings during the Tinner Hill Blues Festival. Thank you to everyone who participated this year!


I went in for for my twice a year hair cut on Sunday. After 15 years, my hairdresser Alice has quit telling me that she thought I moved (!) and now just asks how tall the kids are! I have been threatening to shave my head because I was so bored with my hair but short hair requires frequent trims so I wimped out with a shorter version of my current do....

Hard to believe the school year is almost over. Went to a wonderful graduation party on Sunday (yum!) and sat there watching the "kids" who look more like the "grown-ups" everyday. Guess that makes me the "oldster".

I am feeling a little schizophrenic about summer. On one hand I am really looking forward to taking a family break toward the 4th of July but I am plotting & planning ahead to the art show fundraiser in August and doing strategic planning for Christmas (eek!). But you know it will be here before you know it!

Last but not least, Stifel & Capra received a nice compliment from Sydney Trent, the new deputy editor of the Washington Post Magazine. In telling how she about enjoying positive news, especially stories about people pulling themselves up out of rough circumstances, she was kind enough to mention us specifically by name! With all the follow up rehab and phantom pain that Bob still goes through on a daily basis, it's kind of cool to know your personal story has an impact. Here is the link if you'd like to take a peek... http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/06/05/AR2009060502092.html Posted by Picasa
