Alex DID IT !!

My sweet niece Alex graduated from High School on Sunday last.

There was wind and rain during the ceremony and the students got soaked, but they didn't seem to mind at all - hair-dos were flattened, but their spirits soared. Some of the speakers even incorporated the 'rain' theme into their remarks; a beloved teacher even sang an impromptu version of "Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head" that met with much laughter and applause.

The ceremony ended just as the clouds cleared, a fitting end and beginning for the students. Everyone adjourned to the quad for photos... in the sun!

This picture is of me, Alex, and my sister Cathy (who managed to come a bit early from her home in Thailand for a meeting in San Francisco).
