Summer school has been cancelled due to budget cuts. He didn't qualify any ways , too smart!
We believe the summer should be for being a kid or young adult and both my kids go to camps in Canada. Riley my youngest is going to a camp on a lake 4 hours outside of Toronto for a month this summer and Bryce goes to an Easter Seals sailing camp for ten days. It is the only time of the year my wife and I get to be alone so it is our holiday as well
Got to call you about the shop classes. I need to rebuild my front calipers and put a new clutch cable in

Steve

Congrats to all of you, but stanford and bezerkely? Hasn't he had enough challenges without submitting him to brainwashing?

Everything in life pales in comparison to the pride and joy you get from your children. Congrats Steve, to you and your son.

Sweet.

My niece has Cerebral Palsy. I remember the first time I saw her walk very clearly. Knowing what I know, or rather knew at the time, I was quite stunned, moved me to tears.

She graduates HS a week from today, valedictorian. Perhaps the most intelligent person I have ever met. Going to Cal Poly, SLO in the fall.

Congratulations to your son on his remarkable achievement. But you and his mom are entitled to take a bow bro. Well done.
