2. Thanks!
For me is almost 20 years to the day, from when I got my BS.

My oldest son (adopted) inspired me to go back to school. We've had a running rivalry for two and a half years!

(PS: I won by 1/100th of a GPA)

5. Thank you!
Deval Patrick was the speaker at our commencement.

He got standing ovations just for walking to the microphone.

He is an awesome speaker!

I felt privileged just to be there to her him speak.

20. If you meet me at the summit
I'll buy you lunch!

(That's the observation post ot the top of the red trail, not the metereological observatory)

I'm up there every 30 minutes from 6:00AM to 8:00AM.

I climb up to it from base on 138; four summits every saturday and sunday...

:hi:
