Roy spent most of the day mounting the new spreader. He still has a lot to do to it, but at least it's up there. I phoned my daughter Kathy. She told me her employer is going to pay her tuition to attend Golden Gate College to study accounting. The tuition there is $10,000 a year! Wow! When she completes her studies there, she's going to go to San Jose State for a Bachelor's in Accounting. When she gets her BA, she has practically been promised a job with an accounting firm that will provide her with the experience she needs to become a CPA. She wants to have her own business by the time she's in her fifties. That's really great. When I was thirty, it didn't occur to me I'd ever be fifty. I had an opportunity to become a CPA, but I turned it down. In fact, I had all kinds of opportunities that I passed up. I'm glad my children have more sense than I had. Kathy has never received the letter from the Dominican Republic. Guess the postal clerk pocketed the money for the stamp and threw the letter in the wastebasket.
