Going Yankee

Tonight I am going to see the Yankees with my friend Ron Berler. We will be taking the train into NY. This will be my first trip to the new Yankee Stadium.   Cleveland Indians are in NY to take on the Yankees. Update - Last night the Yankees won 6 to 4 on Derek Jetter's birthday. Stadium looks great and we met a passionate Yankee fan (Ray) who was 72 years old . Enjoyed the night! The Red Sox also gained a victory over Toronto.  

Honoring Aaron

Yesterday one of my teachers Melania Smith came to me to ask a question. It seems that she wanted to do a scholarship for a young person in college and she would like to honor our son Aaron. I told her if was a wonderful thing that she was doing to help someone else as well as to honor the name of our son. A $500 scholarship will be presented to Randall Austin. Randall is a great young man who works with our after school program. Randall is in college and he did some observations in our art room and fifth grade this past school year. I noticed that Randall came in early quite often and he would be helping in the afternoon art classes. A great choice for the scholarship!
