Our son Andy and his wonderful wife Natalia have blessed Harriet and I with their first child and our fourth grandchild and second grandson, Mateo Antonio Way! He is named after his maternal great grandfather and he is a cute little fellow! We are proud AND relieved, since we have waited eight months to be able to hold these two healthy, adorable tykes in our arms. Life is good!

On Friday September 22, my third grandchild by my daughter Emily was born. Tessa Kapoor is the spitting image of her now-4-year-old big sister Cara when she was born. That guarantees that Tessa will be a beautiful, headstrong, enchanting little girl in a couple years! Her big brother Jay and Cara are happy that "the baby in Mommy's belly" has finally arrived- almost as much as their mommy is!
Christopher South wrote a very nice article about the retirement party mentioned in my August 9 blog. You can read it by clicking on this link:
Thank you Chris for your thoughtful article! Here is a picture of Brian Wells the Indian Lake town supervisor presenting me with a very nice resolution from the town board, which I will treasure always!
On Monday night August 7, the town of Indian Lake threw a wonderful party for myself, my wife Dr Harriet Busch, and the new physician in Indian Lake, Dr. Ryan Donnelly. The output of sincere affection and appreciation is something I will gratefully carry with me for the rest of my life, as I leave a wonderful medical career behind for a new lease on life. Dr Donnelly was given a very warm welcome and several Indian Lakers had wonderful things to say about him after seeing him as their new doctor. I was too busy greeting and hugging people to take many pictures!! I took a quick panorama as I was giving a slide show, with the projector causing a vertical blue beam that made several people look like they were beaming up to the Enterprise!! I wish the best of luck to Dr Donnelly and the people of Indian Lake!!
The next night on August 8, I participated in Author's Night at Hoss's Country Corner, the iconic general store in the heart of the Adirondack Park. It was a beautiful night with a full moon and a great time was had. I sat next to Phil Brown, visited with great authors like Nancy Best, Ed Kanze, Carol Gregson, and listened to the genuine Adirondack folksinger and fellow member of the League of Extraordinary Adirondack Gentlemen, Dan Berggren.
