Kudos to Liz Mendel of Dolphin Travel who arranged my trip to Italy!!!  Travel tip: bring your camera charger and alarm clock!!

Here are 2 photos of my trip to Italy: skyline of Florence and gondola in Venice…a magical trip to see all the art, architecture, food, leather,…a visual delight for the senses…plus a strenuous workout…and a surprise viewing of the Pope you can see on my Facebook page…I didn’t think about work for one second and came home jet-lagged but refreshed!!!

I would like to thank Lee Bell from Individual Dimensions in Learning who has done two things for my son, Dylan. First, and most importantly, Dylan went to Lee for his ACT and SAT prep classes. He did so well, that he has been accepted to his first choice of colleges: Boston University. Second, Lee hired Dylan to work for her. He has become more responsible (not easy for a teenage boy), he has learned new skills, and he enjoys going to work.

Thank you, Lee! As Hillary Clinton said, "It takes a village to raise a child." I appreciate you being part of his village.
