<DIV>All is well in Atlanta. Alan and I celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary in June. Dan, Megan, Sam 9 and Jake 6 are in Philadelphia and Jon and Kris are in Houston. We spend most of our travel time visiting them and Alan's mother in Florida. His mother will be 90 in January and rebuilt her house after hurricane Wilma last year. She still lives independently. We are bicycling and hiking and occasionally sailing. I exercise daily and do Pilates and lots of yoga. Some of my fiber work, especially beadwork, has been in juried shows. It has been lots of fun since I still cannot draw a thing.</DIV>
