Happy Birthday Mitchell

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

For all who want to tell us what we do is either not good enough, not fast enough, not high enough, or not our best, only we who have entered the ring know the truth.  Never listen to the naysayers in  life.  Push them away, for we are either moving ahead, or a part of us dies.

Go out and be your best.  We feel fortunate to be associated with all of you.

Hello to Mark and Corene who joined us from Littleton as they were in town for the fourth of July festivities.  Thanks for coming out to play.
