March rain & wind...is this really spring?






Let's see: Will's working hard and thinking about San Luis Obispo a lot. He got an outstanding performance evaluation and is highly appreciated for the work he does. He and Chris go fishing at least once a month and we adventure around the area by truck to
see as much of this country as we can...but we so miss the Ocean! And it has taken a long time for the Spring to arrive. I know we are near the Canadian border but I'm not a cold weather person. And without money to go skiing....classes and hikes have to do. So let me fill you in on the things we have planned. Will is currently in Huntington Beach...he had
to do an audit for Bechtel so he had dinner last night with Jim whose life partner Suzie died just a few months ago. She was wonderful and we visited them while in Australia.
They went to a wonderful Japanese restaurant and enjoyed themselves although Suzie
is missed.

I'm enrolled in two classes at WSC: gerontology and a humanities class. That takes my
Tuesday and Thursdays for most of the day. I also participate in the local film club,
they show alternative films and have monthly board meetings, which takes some time.
And we recently celebrated a year in our community discussion group complete with an article in the local paper about what we do. Suki goes to the "doggie-day-care" twice
a week...for socialization. And that my friends is my schedule. I haven't gone to book club in a while (read a lot for classes) but I do go to Bunko once a month.

So plans...Will has two more audits: one takes him to Atlanta and one to Colorado.
So while he's in Atlanta, I'm going to see my cousins and Aunt in North Carolina in
April. My Aunt Vera is currently going through some medical procedures which are
concerning to all of us. She doesn't know much yet, but it will good to be near her and
support her through this trying time. Will will drive from Atlanta to Pittsboro to join
us the end of the week. Then after we return home....off he goes again. This time to
Colorado.

I'm hoping Justin, Maia and Marly come to visit soon. They have a lot on their plate but would love to have them visit Washington and see where we are. In May, we have
the SIFF: The Seattle International Film Festival again. We had a blast last year so expect a repeat this time. June ...we are hoping for more visitors. So come on up!

Hope you are all well and doing lots of fun stuff. Miss you all!
