Options?



  1. Nice to have friends and family in multiple climates;-)
  2. Placed updated version of slide show originally posted on Friday's post (below) but...
  3. I'm still soliciting feedback on "speakers notes - awkward to access from slide show;-(
  4. So, now have new option to view PDF formatted with slides+Speaker's Notes -an option to view speaker notes or print.

First weekend in Bristol
Arrived just in time for a spectacular stretch of New England autumn (in addition to great company of Jay, Sheila, Jimmy and Sean Buckley) See a few representative slides of the highlights- captions icon by pacing cursor over slide show.

I should mention that October 9-10 marks five years from a traumatic night for me (worse perhaps? for my family). So celebration was even sweeter than thumbnail pictures(or captions)might convey.
