What did keep me in the loop was reading every issue of the Winter Texan Times from front page to back and keeping up with what all the different parks were doing. And it was all positive. I have a feeling that all of you have met adversity head on more I cannot believe - nor do I want for this 2020/2021 Winter Texan than once in your lives and that you to accept - that this is the last is- season. Where did this year go? It did the same with this pandemic. sue of the Winter Texan Times has just flown by. Sometimes I feel You organized street dances, golf cart parades with music no less so that those not in the parades could dance from their front porch and wave "howdy" to those passing by.

Well, I am still looking for my hidden talent and it is not bartending. I would probably be talking when I should be measuring. But then we would have a lot of happy people, wouldn't we? All in all, this year has still been a good year and you helped to make it so. You hung in there and hopefully you will spend a wonderful summer and return to bring us good will and happiness next year. I look forward to all being vaccinated with traveling and touring returning to normal. Let us make that happen with vaccinations, masks and social distancing. I hope to see you in the fall ready and eager to explore and get better acquainted with the beautiful world around us. Have a great summer and stay safe!
