Michelle's Graduation

We hosted Michelle's Graduation reception last night at the Hayner Center.  We were really pleased that so many of our friends and relatives were able to attend.  I have posted a portion of the photos in a set entitled Michelle Graduation Pics on Flickr.

2009 Strawberry Festival Kickoff

2009 Kick Off Host2009 Kick Off HostLast night I managed to stumble through the kick off for the 2009 Troy Strawberry Festival. You know it's bad when you have numerous people tell you "it wasn't that bad. You did fine". The biggest challenge, as I saw last year as well, is getting every dignitary recognized. Even though I had every one of them listed in front of me, I still managed to miss a few.

Actually, it wasn't that bad - but I'm definitely not going to earn a living as a public speaker. The Troy Daily News has a front page story. As is my custom, I've reposted it's contents along with a link to the original story. I'll keep my copy here private so unless you have an account on this web site, you won't be seeing it.
