And this is Korin climbing a tree 1000 feet down in the Grand Canyon. It was a mile and a half hike just to get there!

Front row, Inez Boudineau

Korin has been studying cello for four years now at the Brattleboro Music Center in Vermont and plays very well! Last year Korin raised the mo$$$t money in the Music Center's annual Performathon!

The picture of the Wyckoff cousins is 3 years old now, taken at their aunt Margo's wedding on the shores of Lake Winnepesaukee in New Hampshire. Chandra just graduated from high school in Jacksonville, FL and is entering Sarah Lawrence College in the fall. Roberta is the mother of Erin. Gretchen was married last fall. Rob is right now in Marine boot camp at Parris Island, SC. And Johnno is entering high school this fall in Jacksonville. And Inez has a younger sister, Charlene, who was too little to come to the USA for the wedding. Inez, now graduated from second grade, and Charlene live in Geneva and are learning English for a visit to Florida this fall for a family reunion.
