For years now, my daughter Kaila and I have shared a special Thursday morning ritual: a walk and talk in one of Round Rock’s beautiful parks. No matter the season, we meet up and tackle a one-mile track, catching up on life’s adventures along the way.
This video captures just one of our walks from last fall. We hope you enjoy a glimpse into our tradition.

Enjoys The Eclipse
Santorini is a postcard come to life. Dramatic cliffs plunge into the Aegean Sea, while whitewashed villages cling precariously to the slopes. Everywhere you turn, breathtaking vistas unfold, making it a photographer’s dream. But Santorini isn’t just a looker; it caters to a variety of travelers.
Foodies will be in heaven with the abundance of fresh seafood restaurants lining the calderas. Sample local Santorini specialties like fava bean purée (fava) or cherry tomatoes lightly breaded and fried (tomatokeftedes). Indulge in a glass of Assyrtiko, a crisp white wine grown on the island’s volcanic soil.
Couples seeking romance will find it in abundance. Luxurious hotels with infinity pools and sunset views were practically made for honeymoons. Oia, with its whitewashed houses and iconic blue domes, is particularly charming, but be prepared for crowds, especially during peak season.
Adventurers will find ways to keep busy beyond lounging on the beach (which, with volcanic black sand or pebbles, isn’t for everyone). Hike the trails that weave through the caldera, offering stunning views from every turn. Explore the ancient ruins of Akrotiri, a Minoan settlement buried by a volcanic eruption. Wine enthusiasts can visit wineries nestled in the caldera, where tastings often come with panoramic vistas.

Everyting about the evening was wonderful. Thanks to Karen.
Morehouse President, Dr. Robert Franklin, is the tenth President of Morehouse, and follows a long-standing tradition in masterfully guiding and leading the college toward excellence.
Dr. Franklin has highlighted five important “expectations” that all Morehouse Men must meet, but I think we’d all be better off if we could embrace these all-important qualities of leaders.
