Thanks Alton...Everyday is an adventure when you live with Jake! I could post a story every single day of the week and make you laugh! They have posted 15mph speed limit signs in the hallways at his new high school...they were scared to have him (a handicapped person) come to the school at first, now he keeps them shaking their heads every day. He pretty much floored the Ski club instructor, when he went to his office and signed up for the club, it was kind of like they said can't you just take theater or chess club or something, but no, Jake has to take the Ski club...I say good for him! Hope this finds you doing well, I enjoy your postings, and your sense of humor. Judi
