Zimplicity

Keep in mind that everything does is strategic distraction. The more massive the destruction/distraction, the bigger the issue that is being covered up.

REMINDER - Come join us on October 5th at 1:00p at Narrows Brewery at the bottom of 19th street.

After 42 years in education, I retired on June 30 after serving as the Director of the American School of Warsaw for 9 years. About half of my career was here in the Pacific Northwest in University Placer and, with the help of my brother and sister, we're hosting a gathering so that I can reconnect with past students, colleagues, family, and dear friends to celebrate here at home after a wonderful event back in Warsaw. If you are unable to attend, you can provide a message on a padlet created for this US event here: https://buff.ly/iildd2K

Please consider joining us and RSVP on Facebook ( https://buff.ly/SPzelEC ) to let us know you are coming so that we can plan accordingly. Welcome beverages and food provided. No host bar as well. No need to bring anything but yourselves and looking forward to being home again with all of you!!

And many thanks to all the family members who will join.
