Warning

I'm cleaning out the garage.  For some reason I have three boxes of old Stynsberg memorabilia - photos, letters, funeral notices, patent applications, stamps etc.  Much of it is from before any of us were born.

I'm bringing them to Jose's party on Monday.  You guys (i.e. Stynsbergs) can decide what's to be done with it all.

Who knows, maybe some of those stamps are valuable?

Jose's 4th on the 4th!

You're invited to Jose's birthday party (and family get-together) on the 4th! Come at 2pm or whenever. Potluck at 5pm. We'll have the grill if you want to grill. We'll rent a tent if it looks like it will be wet. Horseshoes? Bocce ball? Croquette? Volleyball? Swing? Hike? Sit and talk? Fireworks? Bring a lawn chair and beverage. We have some lawn chairs and we'll have water and something... Please don't feel obligated to bring a gift for Jose. We'll probably do this every year for another 14 years!

A New Chapter for Jo

This is Jo when she was a student teacher.

This is Jo when she first started teaching.

This is Jo in retirement.  Wednesday at 3:30 p.m. A race well run.  Sadder but wiser.
