Summer is just around the corner

Memorial day weekend marks the unofficial start of summer.
Ours began earlier this week when temperatures reached record highs.
Over the next few weeks many organizations will celebrate annual meetings. And the very busy months of May and June will come to a close, leading to a slower more relaxed July and August.
I am starting my weekend by attending my 7th Grade Jewish Day School reunion. We were 45 graduates who spent our elementary school years at the Jewish Peoples School in Montreal. The school's ideology was a Labor Zionist one, where Yiddish was the spoken language. Being in Montreal, we also learned French and of course Hebrew.
What a hoot it will be to see how we have all fared and how our lives have taken shape over these many years. It will also be interesting to see how our class has involved itself in the Jewish community.
Take care this weekend and stay safe!
