Due to your note on Kierstin's blog we know about your blog now!
Checked out your photo website, some really good photos. I'm kinda jealous.

Haha yeah! Now you can't post how you really feel about all of us!

Oh, and I'm NOT coming to the Urban Plunge reunion unless there's free food!

Jon,

I love your picture of the coffee cup on the kitchen table. What a beautiful backdrop. Your article on Fair Trade Coffee was well received by everyone in Nashua. Yesterday, during a shopping trip to Hannaford Brothers grocery store I looked high and low for a coffee with the "Fair Trade" logo……… but no joy! Hannaford Brothers is a very large grocery store chain in New England and surprisingly does not sell any "Fair Trade" coffee products. I spoke to the store manager and suggested that he looked into purchasing alternate coffee products. Time will tell. Keep up the good work! Everyone sends their love.

Thanks for the nice comments dad! The mug photo does make me a little sentimental toward the old house, though. I also appreciate your support of Fair Trade and your continued work toward getting Hannaford and other Nashua stores to stock their store with more Fair Trade products. Keep up the good fight :)

And to the great group of students at Fordham with whom I've had the pleasure to work for the last few weeks, particularly Kierstin, Jonathan, Amanda and Deena: thanks for checking out the blog, my photos, and my rants, I'll be sure to update the site as soon as I develop my Urban Plunge photos. See you all around . . . SL18A . . . Kierstin, I haven't seen you in a while, did you just pick up and skip town :)

¿Por qué no ha actualizado su blog?
¿Está usted muy ocupado o qué es lo que pasa?

This photo makes me very nostalgic! It seems like it was years ago when we lived on Swart Terrace. Speaking of fairtrade coffee, you better try Ben and Jerry's Coffee Heath Bar Ice cream! Its to die for and is made from fair trade coffee!! Yeah!!!
I love you
