We're in Philly now. The Gordon Bok concert was, as expected, simply wonderful. The only song of Gordon's that my 18-year-old niece had ever heard was "The Brandy Tree," which is one of her favorite songs. I was going to ask him at the break if he would do this, not expecting that he would because he generally does relatively new material. But as it happened, he did the song in the first set. My niece was thrilled!

Spent the day today in Hershey. The medical center has mushroomed since I started there as a student (gulp!) 30 years ago... Shayna had a fantastic time at Hersheypark. I think we went on 6 of the 9 roller coasters! Going to try to get together with Max and/or Bert while we're here in the Quaker State, if it works out. Otherwise y'all will just have to come to Hawaii.

Aloha,
Mark
