Brian and Sharon continued their personal education efforts by attending a lecture series on Oil & Water, which was mostly about Peak Oil. And we helped the Northwest Earth Institute test their latest discussion course on global warming.

Our extended family is also doing well. Sharon and Mason traveled to northwestern Arizona to help Sharon’s grandmother celebrate her 80th birthday in November, and Brian’s mother is on track to celebrate her 90th next March. Both enjoy an active life and good health, for which we are all very grateful.
