College

Speaking of school. Here we are with Brett, #1 Grandson after his good bye dinner. He left the week after this picture for college in Chico. He is rooming with 2 or 3 other college students. He certainly darfs us. We figure the football coaches are going to be after him to play ball but he has never been interested in playing football. He's a gentle giant!

Now Kelcy is due to leave soon for Santa Cruz to start college too. She is a year younger than Brett. She graduated wtih honors and a 4.xx gpa. She intends to bcome a pharmacist. Their parents are left with 2 at home but know it will a tough adjustment.
Here's Kelcy with her group on the grounds at BC during graduation in June.


Now this was her group from North High that had GPAs above 4.0. Amazing! Kelcy was right in the middle, in fact, she is behind the guy in the suit right in the middle of the picture. I snapped this at that moment while in the stadium bleachers. It was pretty darn warm that night. The year Brett graduated was the last year the graduation was held at North high due to the large number of students graduating. Kelcy was the first North High student to compete in the state tennis championship.

Time does go by quickly! Enjoy your kids and grandkids because they grow up, go away to school and on to lead their own lives!
