This summer my travels took me to New England, where I visited Billy Quirk and his family for an annual trip to their hometown of Westerly, Rhode Island. The Quirks are always gracious hosts, and we enjoyed time at the beach, in the ocean, on bikes, and listening to Billy play piano. I also stayed with Ryan Fuselier and his wife, Lara, in their palatial house in Stamford, Connecticut. Ryan, a talented cook, made us all dinner and we reminisced about college days and spent time with their puppy, Lolo.
Back in Chicago I caught up with Mike Stroup and Julie Fogarty and her husband, Lant, over dinner. It’s been great to see everyone and keep in touch during a busy summer.
Wishing everyone a happy fall. For those in the Northeast, hope to see you at the Dartmouth vs. Princeton football game at Yankee Stadium in November. I look forward to hearing from you all soon!
