Another Weekend

What a week! My class of underacheivers were taught this week by our oldest son and a prospective new teacher to the school. Throw in me in between and the kids had quite a week also.

Annie, Wilson and I are heading north to Napa Valley. The kids are going to bond with their uncle and aunt, I'm the chauffer. Wils will have to uphold the "Sobrino" tradition. Tio Juan's foreman, Jose Leon, said he preferred the sobrinos, Brad and Sam, in the past to other workers. Wilson has that memory to keep him going. Dad hopes he realizes manual labor is good for the soul and that school isn't so bad also.

Wilson has something on his Bucket List that the others haven't done. He received his SAT scores today. He "did work" as he said--2110 of 2400. We are proud of this accomplishment. Now if he "does work" on the vines, that will be another good thing.

Addendum to earlier post.

The brother above on the right proved himself tonight in a summer league game and is going to prove himself this next week in the vines on Mt. Veeder. The brother on the left is in Georgia proving himself now in anticipation of serving his country. We received a letter describing going into the gas room and taking off his mask. He said he was to take off the mask, say his name, clear his mask and put it back on. Sam's response is typical of Sam, "I was glad to know the mask works," after putting the it back on.

Brad finished up his school year and coaching winning at Clovis North. He has one more year at FSU and then. . . He will be leading Wils next week, that will be interesting.

Annie finished her freshman year with straight A's. Wooo,
Whooo! Early mornings in the weight room and nights studying paid off.
