I have been enjoying the beautiful warm days we recently have had. The early flowering shrubbery is so beautifully blossomed out and my tulips are opening. My time of the year.

I was so saddened to hear of the bombing at the Boston Marathon Monday afternoon. So many thousand there for a day of enjoyment, I never heard if it was a fundraiser for some needed charitable organization. To end so tragically, it just breaks one’s heart.

The residents at Atria Elizabethtown invited students in a third-grade class at Southwestern Elementary School in Hanover, Ind., to Skype with them. The students and residents were asked to come up with a questions for each other. Atria resident Doris Pile had 14 fellow residents in her apartment to participate in the program. This was the first time any of the residents have been exposed to Skype.
