Frost warnings in West Stockbridge tonight. "Dad, can we please turn on the heat?" Sigh. I love this weather, but it's another reminder that time is marching along. A long day today before returning home. Tim is still feeling a little under the weather, so he took it a little easy today, not much new to report. He's losing three floor mates this week as they head home. Jim and Joe are "older" guys (somewhere between Tim and me) and they're off to live in new homes in Syracuse and Salem. Shauna is going back to a renovated home with her family in New Hampshire. All had an influence on Tim in one way or another, and were a pleasure for all of us to know. They'll exchange contact information and stay in touch. And on it goes.
The USPS brought by a couple of nice cards from cousin Andrew P. Williams of Belmont, CA and West Stockbridge native Joanne Campbell of Lexington, both of which brought smiles to his face.
A couple of interesting things on the horizon. Wednesday the 19th is SCI Awareness Day at the State House and a bunch of Spaulding residents are heading up to Beacon Hill, where Dr. O'Connor will be among the speakers.

Apparently Tim has been approached by Spaulding staff to meet with some of the folks from the Locomat company to talk about his experience and perhaps be photographed. We'll have to see what that's all about.
And now, a word from our good friends at Audi:
It takes time to consider each and every detail. Even the ones you’ll never see or touch. But when the final result is nothing less than perfection, time and effort melt away.
** This is a direct quote taken from Tim's new book on the history and philosophy of Audi.
