<div dir="ltr">Entering my 12th year retired from academia and my 6th year away from Project Shepherd for the major addition/renovation of our Fine Arts Building at SUNY-Fredonia.<div><br></div><div>Entering our 7th year as volunteers for Revitalize Dunkirk, Inc where a group of the "Usual Suspects" provide advocacy, planning, materials and labor in creating numerous native perennial planting beds around the city in addition to writing (and getting!) grants for such things a bicycle air pumps, trash/recycle bins, etc. in the city. This is damned tiring but fulfilling nonetheless.</div><div><br></div><div>Most immediate project is the reconstruction of a two-tiered raised bed planting site where most of the stacking concrete block walls have collapsed in the past year. Rebuild will start in late September when the heat is gone.</div><div><br></div><div>Actually doing two sort of theatre related bits. One a second pro bono examination of the performance space at a local catholic elementary school school. A repeat of one I did about 20 years ago and I don't think any of my recommendations were heeded. Second time is hopefully a charm. As well, I agreed to spec some LED lighting fixtures for a small local performance venue that is doing great things on a limited budget. You may see me here regarding that project shortly/</div><div><br></div><div>Have a grand year y'all!!</div><div>Steve</div><div><br></div><div><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div>Stephen E.
