Good Morning Friends!
It’s Sunday, September, 23rd.
Before we go too far, we bet you’re anxious to know the answer to the iconic building picture, right? So here it is:
The Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles! Did anyone out there get it? We want to give you all the kudos you deserve.
As promised the other day we are making some changes to the newsletter. They’re changes we think you’ll like, but until you see them and take them for a ride, we don’t know. We hope you’ll let us know in the comments section or by email Mark at markjohn1@mac.com. 
We’re not going to waste your time with a description of what we did. We’ll just let you get into the newsletter and enjoy it for this Sunday.
Be Well, and please let us know with a thumbs up or down and comment if you like!
