One more Italian student coming to Seattle. Details below if you are interested. A host family is needed for an Italian High School Foreign Exchange student coming to Seattle, for the 2011/12 school year. A potential host family is needed for a boy who is very active and sporty, he is excited to try new things, and enjoys soccer, tennis and Gymnastics, and likes to spend time with his younger sister. He can't wait to meet his new American family. Students come with good English skills, full health insurance and their own personal spending money, and mainly the desire to be a member of an American family. We ask our families to provide a bed (shared room is okay with similar age range) and meals eaten with the family. Host families do not need to have teenagers of their own; young families as well as empty nesters are excellent high school student hosts this year.   For more information about the students and the program, contact Jamin Henderson at   360-661-0552  or j....

It is a great new book that just came out last month.   Research into the three generations of the Lucchesi family brought Matson face to face with what days and nights must have been like for her grandmother, an innocent, young girl brought from Italy to a small mining town in Michigan in the 1800s. The scandalous elopement. The building of a family and a business. Intertwined within the story is the growth, not only of the Lucchesi family but also of America—from horse-drawn carriages, to automobiles, to airplanes, and, finally, the information age and computers. http://www.TheLucchesiStory. com Thank you so much, ------- Daryl Daryl Laitila
