By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.
This is the direct quote but I am sure it should read most bitter rather than bitterest? Is that even a word?
"In prosperity, our friends know us;in adversity, we know our friends." John Churton Collins

Rain Again
I am getting quite tired of this continous rain. It feels like it has rained for 40 days and perhaps we should be building our arks. The ground is saturated and there are puddles all over. I am also beginning to think I would prefer that it be snow. At least when it snows it is usually pretty to look at. Today I am working on a glow worm costume for AJ, for his school Christmas program. The program is December 14.

Mike making the news
I think I have mentioned that Mike has become an active member in the Bowling Green Aktion Club which is an organization of the Kiwanis. For the Christmas parade in Bowling Green this year the Aktion club decided to collect food along the parade route and donate it to the local food bank. Mike appeared on the local news with his Aktion club as well as being quoted in print. The first article is from the Perrysburg Messenger Journal and the second article is from the Bowling Green Sentinel. Nice job Stanford.
