graduation's done , summer is here!



We had a wonderful time at William's Washington and Lee graduation . Could not believe it had been four years already but it was a joyous day. Annie and Will were very successful graduates, Annie was summa cum laude and Will was cum laude. I am so proud of my son. He worked very hard to get that accolade and it was a teary moment watching the walk across the podium. Then it was on to Charlotte, NC with Sarah in tow to look for apartments. Which we found. A modern apartment complex close enough to walk to work. Charlotte was hopping that night with a Nascar celebration and we sat on the street corner, eating guacamole and people watched. I think Charlotte will be just fine for Will.  My graduation present to him was a Brooks Bros. wardrobe!! He looks terrific in his tailored Brooks Bros and ready to conquer the financial world. We are now furniture shopping and he is breaking in those new fancy shoes.
 They are off to their well-earned European vacation 
later this month, but before that I have the pleasure of 
Will's company for a short time this summer. Sarah is 
back in LA and house buying as we speak. It was 
great to hang with Sam in Lexington too. Both Sam
 and Sarah gave Will thoughtful and funny toasts at 
his fraternity dinner  and we all learned why it is
 called a "toast". I have the best kids. 
The horses are all OK, foals bumping and jumping, the mares are pregnant and lazy. Life is good.
