HI Amy, Just one of the Rotary guys wanting to say hello. Hope you are having a good year. We have had 4 exchange students over the years and we still communicate and see them. Rafael, from Spain, who was at our house in 1988 came to visit this past summer. You will have new friends for life. Take care, have fun!!! Burnell Hanson
