Summer vacation and the weather is hot and muggy. The sweet corn will enjoy this weather, while this school bus driver is enjoying having the summer off...sleeping until past 9 AM! Today, as a enjoy the coolness of my basement, I am recovering from the lower back impact brought on my a 10-day visit from my daughter Jenna and her three boys. The 2-year-old is a challenge with his 35 pounds needing a boost. Don't get me wrong, I miss him already. I love being a Grandpa!!!! Today I am reading from two articles: 1.) Des Moines Register article, written by Marc Hansen, "Ankeny loses far more than great bus driver", then 2.) A short segment on Senior Living, by Shelly Charter, of Valley View Village, "Staying social is good medicine."
