Every summer Phil Hultin goes to a gathering of radio-control flyers in Kenora, Ontario, where they all fly their radio-controlled float-planes off a lake. This year the weather was a bit doubtful but they still got in some nice flying time.

On July 17 Jeff Teich and his husband, Nicholas Pratley, celebrated their 2014 wedding (a ceremony in Malibu) and the birth in May of their daughter, Ava Grace, at the Boathouse in Central Park.

Liz Mueller spent the summer in Europe with her Austrian boyfriend and they traveled through Italy, Croatia and Austria. He showed her the mountains where Becky Wolcott Ankeny’s son skis—too steep for her to hike, much less ski down. While in Italy for one month, Liz worked on perfecting her Italian grammar—especially prepositions—while her policeman boyfriend worked with the Italian Border Control at the port of Ancona, Italy, to deal with the flow of immigrants coming into Europe. While in Austria, she worked on trying to understand the complexities of German grammar and taking chairlifts and gondolas to the top of mountains to avoid having to hike up! She managed a few hikes amidst absolutely stunning scenery in the Pongau Valley, near Salzburg.

Martha Gerhan’s husband, a former Financial Times tech correspondent, will publish his first novel in January. Terms of Use by Scott Allan Morrison is a fast-paced thriller that exposes the dark side of social media, where big Internet companies use our data to manipulate our thoughts and actions. They are organizing a series of author readings early in the year, and Martha would love to see anyone who can make it—she even promises Scott will sign your copy! Reach out to Martha if you’re interested in hosting a reading (Boston, D.C., N.Y.C., Minneapolis, Chicago and Atlanta are all on the list!)
