Hi Makenzie! I wondered where you had been. I'm really glad to hear about your continuing education. I have heard about the American College of Building Arts. It looked like a really good program that I hope is successful and grows. I think there is a good future in historic restoration work and it's a field where skill and craftsmanship are valued.

When you have a chance to get back this way, make sure to come to a meeting and tell us all about your experiences. Or maybe we should visit you--several of us have been talking about visiting Philip Simmon's shop for a road trip.

Let me second what Linda said about visiting us when you can. It sounds as if this is a great opportunity. Best of good fortune.

Math/English . . . . you

Math/English . . . . you can never get away from it can you?

I'd love to hear more about the school!
