Dear Friends,
Emily got to stay an extra day in Key West since there was some sort of computer glitch that cancelled her flight home. She got a lot done here and the store is looking great. I am sorry to report that our store manager here in Key West will be leaving to move up to Georgia to help with his family and take care of his health. Joe has been a fixture here for the whole time we have had this store and we will miss him dearly.
It is March and we are down the Sweet Sixteen, basketball playoffs are just ahead with my Boston Celtics pushing Cleveland for first in the east and baseball season is about to get underway. Ah, spring, gotta love it. Of course, other than sports it is hard to tell what season it is down here. Back in the Green Mountains they still have a bunch of snow and probably some more mud to deal with.
I have written many times about how Apple and technology can make our lives better but there was a story out of the UK that really brought that home to me. A 4-year old found his mother unconscious and used her thumb to unlock her iPhone. He then proceeded to ask Siri to call emergency services. That all worked and emergency services arrived are revived his mom. I know it is annoying to see everyone always starring into their devices. I am as guilty as most, maybe more guilty, but there are a lot of good things happening because of this increased ability to communicate instantaneously. Ten years ago, there was no iPhone and this would have been impossible. I still want my flying car but I am impressed with how fast technology changes our lives.
