Not a whole lot happened this past week, so I resurrected a picture from our trip to Gatlinburg, Tennessee last year. This is one Nancy took of her Mom (left), her sister (center), and her aunt (right). As I write, these three ladies and Karl are on their way to Huntsville. It's Karl and Elaine's annual escape from northern Michigan in February, but this year they are bringing Mary and Nina. I'll have at least one more picture next week of the whole group.

There's no picture documenting the event, but there was an important milestone this past Wednesday. On February 7, I "celebrated" 30 years at Teledyne Brown Engineering. As part of that celebration, I turned in my retirement notice! March 16 will be my last day at TBE. If you'd like to read more about my company, click here to view some information on my group.
