Happy Holidays - a personal note - and MindBlog taking a break

My partner Len and I have traveled from our Fort Lauderdale snowbird retreat to Austin Texas to join  my ex-wife Marilyn Young, son Jonathan Bownds, daughter-in-law Shana Merlin, and my first grandchild, their new 9 month old grandson Sebastian.   They are now living in the Bownds family home that now has sheltered four generations of the Bownds family.  Daughter Sarah Bownds from Madison is also here.
