    Graduated

    Hi y'all,

    Been a while but things have been busy round here. Yesterday a whole lot of things culminated in this GREAT event.

    My dear wife got her BS degree!!!

    Lots of tears and laughter. Lots of friends, without whom this never could have happened.

    During the wait for the ceremony, four or five folks came up and started talking to me. My son, twelve, told me " That kilt is a real conversation starter!" I just had to agree.

    The day went went well and now the realization that this part of life has ended but another BIG part is about to start. Hmmmm....What are the career choices for an onery, busted up, not formally educated, almost 50 year old bovine pedacurist?

    Not about me today. Just had to share our delight and pride.

    Great pictures. Your wife deserves a medal for this accomplishment! I'm sure she will find that all her hard work, and the sacrifices that all had to make will pay off!
