Bruce & Group,
It is good, on occasion, to sit and remember our blessing. The song "The
Best Things in Life are Free" is really true. We live in a society where
so much emphasis is placed on wealth and status, yet, sunsets and good
friends are equally enjoyed all. Let us all remember, throughout our
part of the next century, that we were put here to serve, not to be
served.
Happy New Year to All!
