Your response to my plea for updates netted more than could be reasonably edited down to a 500-word column. Look forward to the November/December column and future newsletters for the rest of the story.
Winter is waning as I prepare for this spring column. From this avid snow skier’s point of view, this winter has been pretty disappointing in southern New England with less than 20 ski days, but golf season is not far away.
As I pen this column, another Christmas has come and gone. We all wonder what the New Year will bring. I hope it will bring many updates from far and wide.
A cold, wet Nor’easter blows outside—leftover from Hurricane Willa—and cramps local Halloween parades and celebrations as I write this column for Dartmouth’s 250th year.
The summer has been unusually wet and humid in Connecticut. I look forward to the cooler fall weather that will accompany the arrival of these Class Notes.
