Lifelong learning is a must!

There are some people who spend their entire lives working with an attitude not unlike Snoopy, the cherished "Peanuts" cartoon character. Snoopy sat droopy-eyed at the entrance of his doghouse lamenting, "Yesterday I was a dog. Today I'm a dog. Tomorrow I'll probably still be a dog. SIGH. There's so little hope for advancement."

Enjoying the rituals of spring

Area high schools have been holding their proms the past few weekends and even though it’s been 21 years since our youngest graduated from high school it’s been fun to see the photographs of so many teens all dressed up in their fancy finery. This past Saturday, Timberlake High School and Lake City High School proms took place. I wanted to tell each and every one of these young people that yes, these are memorable magical times of their lives but by no means are these the best years of their lives. The world awaits.

Cheers and Jeers for March 17, 2020

Cheers to Wells Fargo Bank at 823 Cleveland Boulevard in Caldwell. Our experience with Wells Fargo Bank, in general, has by far not been the best in all the years we have banked with them, however this particular branch stays open one hour later than any other Wells Fargo. They also have the best, respectful and polite customer service in Caldwell. Although I live outside of town I will drive the extra few miles to this particular Wells Fargo Bank for my services. I hope they continue to set a good example for all Wells Fargo banks.
