Thanks for visiting gormanlink.com. It offers the latest, craziest (as so often happens with us) news about Michael, Fran, and family; our annual photo journal; and other content to amuse, inform, and entertain.

We're halfway through 2010 with a lot to share. After the first of the year, Fran "gracefully" settled into retirement after 26 years with PG&E. It's still too early to predict how well she'll handle it. Our first major project of 2010 was to put El Taj Oceanfront into service. Having done that, we took a break on Oahu and Maui. Then it was on to our second major project - selling the La Jolla property and paying off our Maui condo. In this economy that wouldn't have been a sure thing, but, as luck would have it, we located a terrific real estate agent who got it done.

We're now eagerly anticipating the second half of 2010 scheduled to include Kauai, a Gorman family reunion at Donel's lakefront resort in Missouri, New York City, and a long-awaited trip to view the spectacular Fall Foliage in Montreal & Quebec City, Canada.
