A note from Dick McBane

    All is well with us here in Lilburn, Ga., assuming that we disregard the usual aches and pains of growing older. My wife and I will be hosting our oldest son and his family this afternoon for the "holiday." To my mind, Memorial Day is still May 30, but I'm mostly stuck somewhere back in the 20th century anyway. It hardly seems possible that our oldest grandson will be off to college in the fall. Our local paper, The Gwinnett Daily Post, has now gone to five-day publication -- Wednesday through Sunday. It's a good paper that understands its strength has to be local coverage and it sticks to it. Of course, Gwinnett County is a big hunk of geography and has about a 700,000 population, including the largest public school district in Georgia, so the Post has plenty to cover.
