  • Because I am Still Grateful

     Work will continue on the Lantern Room project today. A vendor will take a look this morning.  I spent a good part of the day yesterday trying to figure out ways to relight some of the web cams.  The funds that were donated to buy those cameras came in large part from the Stahr family…

     A year ago I was as sick as I ever was over the course of treatment I had. Super Bowl Sunday came with me just released from a week long stay at MGH and still not perking along on all cylinders. I was sick. Friday and Saturday of this week I got out around the…
