I'm not entirely certain why I haven't written since April. We've had three deaths in the family since March (My mother, father-in-law, and my wife's godfather) and so we've been taking care of family business, so I guess that's part of it too.
The girls are headed to college (and back to college) in a matter of days. We're very excited, although it'll be MUCH quieter with only our son home (still looking for a job). Is there a parallel of the "honey-do" list for adult kids who are recently graduated but don't have a job yet? (GRRRRR) If not there will be...heh, heh, heh...
Work at LU is about to gear up. Students are back on campus for marching band, a few moving into the dorms, with classes starting on the 22nd. BUT--the big news is that after four years without a director, we're getting one--Carla Sarratt from Wilmington NC. She was in the public library world in her most recent position. We'll see how it goes. We hear that she's big on programming and public engagement, so buckle your seat belts.
