Of all Dad's kids, I think Dad would agree that I am the worst at providing information about my family. Here is an update.
Robin just finished her summer session at school and she is counting down the days until we go on vacation to San Diego next week.
Mary is working as an editor this summer, but she is looking for a place to apply her CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) skills. She will continue taking classes at UVSC next semester.
Yumi was promoted to manager of the Japanese Customer Service Department at her company. She received a surprisingly good pay raise.
I (Alan) am wrapping up a summer intensive course at BYU. The new semester starts the first week of September. It will be good to return to a normal schedule again. I continue to translate. My in-box is always stacked high with projects. I also edit and train other translators, but I don't like to do that kind of work. I prefer to translate and it pays better too. I get to find out about technologies that are coming in the years ahead, but some are downright silly. I translated a patent on a UFO. It was filled with interesting ideas, but none of which would work.
We are going on vacation next week to San Diego. We will visit the San Diego Zoo, Wild Animal Park, and Sea World. It's a 10 to 11 hour drive from Orem. I will enjoy driving there, but I always hate the return trip.
