Chile account cheered

Fri., Jan. 29, 2010

The Spokesman-Review

Even though The Spokesman-Review seems to be shrinking away, we continue to subscribe. How could anyone give up the chance to be delighted and inspired by the work of Rich Landers?

The articles from the Chilean trip (“Blown away,” Jan. 24) brightened a gloomy Sunday morning. Thanks, Rich, for sharing your family with our community through your adventures and your example of what parents can still create with their children.
