Fulk Family Christmas Newsletter 2006
From Randy, Vivian, Herbie, Cracker, GiGi and Matilda
Howdy! Do you remember your parents telling you that as the years go by, the years go faster? By George, I think I finally get it! Now that momma Joanne is gone, I hear her even more in remembering these sayings.
Vivian spent the first half of the year traveling to Hotlanata, Philly, Albany and DC for work then in August was hired by TEK Systems and is now consulting for GMAC Insurance in Winston-Salem doing the exact same thing as when traveling. Life is weird.
Randy spent his hours studying on line at NCA&T and at Surry Community College as the night time book store attendant. He aspires to be a professor or work for the Agriculture Extension office. He still plays his music out at places but was just too busy with the vineyard. With the coop gone, it was not an option to sell the grapes there, but alas, by late summer he sold all his grapes to local wineries and to home winemakers including to an Albanian viticulturist. He even received a gift of that viticulturist’s book written in Albanian. I told you life is weird.
But the icing on the cake as far as weird is concerned was Vivian seeing the movie “An Inconvenient Truth” opening week in Philadelphia, the political home of Thomas Jefferson and then submitting to The Climate Project to be a speaker. Vivian will be traveling to Nashville in 2007 to train with Al Gore and 200 other people to be a grass roots propagator of global warming news. Now that’s really weird, eh?
