Quote of the Issue:

Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could;
Some blunders and absurdities crept in; Forget them as soon as you can.
Tomorrow is a new day; You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to
be encumbered with your old nonsense.
                                            -Ralph Waldo Emerson, writer and philosopher (1803-1882)

A WORD OR TWO FROM ME
by Karen E. Jarosz
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Summer at the Shore is in full swing! Except for the past few days of rain we have enjoyed some beautiful weather! It seems that we have been seeing some terrific weather on the weekends, too! Be sure to check out some Local Happenings and give yourself some leisure time to just enjoy. Take in a concert, join a book discussion, see a play or shop! Whatever you choose enjoy and bring along a friend or loved one to make it twice as nice...
As always, let me know of any upcoming events and let me know if having th Bulletin every week in the summer has been helpful. Thanks!
Until next Monday, do something nice for yourself or someone else today...
Karen
