Eric,
Tell Thomas Congrats on his graduation. It has been a pleasure following some of his shared adventures.
There is a neighbor of mine who graduates this year as well. When he was about the same age as Thomas in the first photo, Matt (my neighbor boy) would come over and take care of "Jack" (my previous dog) during the times I would be away from home. Now his younger sister is the one I call to help out with "Ginger", my present dog.
A younger person and/or a young adult who has been raised to be hardworking and dependable is a valuable asset to any community. It is with great confidence that I can say, Thomas, Matt and Elizabeth (Matt's sister), are going to be solid citizens in their respective communities. Congrats to them all.
What lies ahead for Thomas in his future plans?
PS; My second oldest granddaughter is graduation this spring also. Now I feel old,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, [pirate]
