From our son who lives in San Francisco... each year he spoils me with a huge bunch
of flowers... this year, roses! Yesterday as we sat down for our lunch at the
Wirra Wirra winery, Southern Vales this huge bunch was put on our table, he then phoned
us and we all had a chat over the phone. Although he's been living in the states for
20 years now, he loves to feel that he's still part of the family when we have
special occasions like birthday etc. Back in the year 1990 he shared in the
choosing of roses and the original planting as he was studying for his Matric exams.
After a stint in Uni here in Adelaide he won 2 scholarships, one which took him to
Stanford where he spent a year qualifying - he then returned home and spent a year
off study and joined a couple of orchestras to earn money.. then moved to Sydney
where he was head-hunted for Microsoft. The rest is history.
