August, die she must. The autumn winds blow chilly and cold.

August ended with some nice surprises. We were pleased to learn that Sonja's diligent efforts resulted in a new job. We jumped at the opportunity and she accepted an offer to be a math teacher again.

Sonja was happy to move on to new employment.

Our new surroundings offer much of what we enjoy.
Another surprise were new backpacks for the kids. Thanks Brandy!
