First I want to tell you what a great job you are doing with the paper.  I do still come up there several times a month, love it and hope my kids do the same as the grandkids get old enough to hike.

I also watch golf with friends every Sunday and I’m pleased to see how well Brendan Steele is doing.

I got my Sept. 18 paper today, and want to put in my 2 cents about Dr Know It All’s column.  I love it.

I am sorry so many locals are lacking a sense of humor and are unable to laugh at themselves because that is one of the greatest pleasures in life.

Why not just alternate the column with “Bad Advice in the Morning?” You know, reading humor pieces is not a requirement, and those who do not enjoy it do not have to pass a test on the contents.

As John Lydgate said  “… but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.” So full speed ahead.

Along with puppy kisses upon request, this smart boy is already in clicker training class. His first report card is A+, as the basic commands were a piece of cake for him. He is learning leash rules, and is great with all other four-leggeds, cats and dogs.
