Although there is a lot I am worried about in this post-election season, I’m focusing on the good today. I’m here in the beautiful Coachella Valley for the winter, playing golf in the morning, playing games and having Thanksgiving dinner with friends. Working it all off with some pickleball in the evening.

We have an amazing daughter and son, who married other amazing people. They are all making the world a better place in their own way. We have two grandchildren who are precocious, loving, and thoughtful, yet they are only 2 and 4 years old.

I have a wonderful wife who has somehow loved me for more than 66.66% of my life! I’ve had more than my share of successful careers, and now I get to work on a project that I love, that helps students who need it most, (Runestone Academy) and I get to do it on my own schedule, when I’m not too busy doing other things I love (see above). In short, I have a lot to be thankful for!
