Time seems to go faster and faster as we get older. We keep busy with many different things, and we do get a bit slower, but we are healthy and hope to stay that way.

We still love to travel, and spend February in sunny California with our 5th wheel. During the summer we camp out close to Echo Reservoir, only 45 minutes' drive from home, so we can still take care of my mother, who is 98 years old now.

We have another cruise planned for November--this time to the Panama Canal. We'll spend a few days with Ralph and Tina and also with a cousin, Leo Henney and his wife Adri, before we board the ship. We are really looking forward to this trip.

I'm still very involved in volunteer work for the St. Joseph Villa and really enjoy it.

We wish all of you a pleasant Holiday Season and good health in the New Year!
