Good Tuesday to you,

We enjoyed having Kristine and Brian visiting us for the weekend. They're back in the Twin Cities at Target headquarters in downtown Minneapolis. Brian's four-man band "Watson" has been writing a number of new songs and is looking forward to some hard work in the recording studio soon. Kristine plays in two touch football leagues on Tuesday and Thursday nights. She plays in two co-ed leagues and is really having a fantastic time.

Nick is well into his classes at Hamline University. He's eagerly looking forward to the upcoming basketball season at Blaine High School. Blaine is the seventh largest high school in Minnesota. Nick will be beginning his third season on the basketball staff. He is an assistant with the varsity and the head junior varsity coach.

This fall Nick is working for the Hamline athletic department. He works football games, working game preparation and can be seen on the sidelines during the games. He also works men's and women's soccer games keeping game statistics.

I have recently been in touch with four of my friends. Joel, a pharmacist in Stillwater, just returned with his son from a four day trip to Baltimore, Maryland. Pritz, living in Elk River, has a son, Kevin, who is a junior at Carroll College in Wisconsin. Carroll is the oldest college in Wisconsin. My son Nick goes to Hamline, which is the oldest college in Minnesota. John, in his personally owned insurance business, is doing well in Hibbing, Minnesota, and he is looking forward to his daughter's upcoming high school basketball season. Kevin has left the Detroit Pistons coaching staff and is the new admissions director at Bethany College in West Virginia.

It's nice to see everyone keeping in touch.

Bill
