Thankful — even if it was in Michigan
About two weeks ago, we had a special occasion to travel to that “school up north,”?as former Ohio State University coach Woody Hayes would call the University of Michigan. That occasion was the senior music recital for grandson Patrick Carter. This recital is a requirement for the bachelor of music degree. Patrick, with the help of his professor, selected the music he wanted to play. He also recruited some of his friends from the School of Music to accompany him for some of the special music. His instrument is the oboe, and he has the talent to get a lot of music out of that oboe. He has a lot of natural music ability plus a commitment to hard work. In many ways, we were lucky over the weekend. For the entire trip we had sunshine and temperatures that approached 70 degrees. Couldn’t ask for anything better. My daughter Jill and son-in-law Kevin, along with Kevin’s father, Dwayne Carter, drove out to Ohio from Bel Air, Md.

If out-of-state animal rights activist groups such as the Humane Society of the United States would get legislation passed that impacts agricultural production, they could cost consumers in the United States millions of dollars.
