Letter to Staff

 Hi Ho Silver Away - I love time references that most of you will not understand -David


To the Brookside Staff,

Thank you for the breakfast this morning. I cannot tell you how much fun I have had over the past 13 years. Each one of you has left me with a wonderful story and I love stories. I have a blog that tells many stories of my life plus thoughts about life. I will leave you with why I titled my blog as "212 The Extra Degree". Bob Hope said it best "Thanks for the Memories".

Why did I title this blog as "212 The Extra Degree". I believe that each and everyone of us can always give a little more or do a little better. The analogy comes from the difference between 211 degrees or 212 degrees. Heating water to 211 degrees gives you hot water. Simply heating that water one more extra degree changes the water to steam. Capturing that steam in an engine powers railroad cars or powers a steam shovel that can move mountains. If each and everyone of us gives a little more will we be able to move our mountain? I think so!
