Hi and bye to 2025! We hope the year has been gracious to you, and that you and your family have been in good health and spirits. This year has passed so quickly with so many things that happened locally (LA fires) and nationally (!!).  We are fortunate to have weathered it all and have been in good health except for back pain from ski falls and lacerated ankles related to electric bike antics.  Sophie-Inez is in 2nd grade, and has quickly picked up reading as a pastime.
