This morning, I took Mike and Pat to the Naperville train station and dropped them off.  They took the Amtrak train downtown and then to Quincy, IL, where they rented another car and drove to Nauvoo.  They’ll stay there for a couple of days and then drive to St. Louis and fly home.  What a great time we had with them.  They were great with our kids and Ben absolutely loved Mike!  He took to him from minute 1.  🙂  We sure appreciate their visit!

Tonight I went to the final major meeting of the District 204 Technology Strategy Committee, where all the sub-groups presented their findings and we discussed ways to merge all these ideas into a cohesive strategy for technology in the district.  I have had a very enjoyable time participating in this and they asked me if I would continue to be available to discuss ideas with, which of course, I am!  As part of my performance metrics for this year at work, I wanted to give back to the community, and this has been a wonderful way to do so.
