Wednesday, June 29th, 2011Today’s guest blogger is former co-editor Cheryl Clemens. There’s a photo that hangs in my teenage daughter’s bedroom of her sitting on the beach when she was about 2 years old.

Finally winning after all of these years
Monday, June 27th, 2011The summer swim season is underway. Our pool finally moved down to Division 2 from Division 1 where we have been miserably entrenched and losing badly for the past three years (if you don’t know what this means, think Meadowbrook – home of the likes of Michael Phelps). So this weekend we finally won our [...]
