Happy Thanksgiving to all God’s people and How to Observe Thanksgiving. Count your blessings instead of your crosses; Count your gains instead of your losses. Count your joys instead of your woes; Count your friends instead of your foes. Count your smiles instead of your tears; Count your courage instead of your fears; Count your full years instead of your lean; Count your kind deeds instead of your mean. Count your health instead of your wealth; count on God instead of yourself.

I hope everyone enjoyed the holiday on the 4th. I didn’t attend the events at Castalia this year but I hear it was really nice (as always). They always do a lot of preparation and hard work and we want to thank everyone who makes it happen. I hear they are going to do a lot of new things in planning the park there. When I ride by I really miss seeing the old barn that had the beautiful U.S. flag painted on the side.

Do you remember where you spent the month of May when you were five years old?

It has been 10 years since that day, and now, over 40 surgeries later, the memories of that event are still with Lucas and his family. Rather than looking at the situation as an insurmountable problem, he embraced his life and found a way to give back to the community that saved his life.

Only 60 percent of the 2002-03 ninth graders graduated with their classmates last year, 952 students out of 1,583.
