thanks Dean - great having an avid photographer at Employment Network meeting on 9/15. Thanks for posting your photos here on the SDS Network.

We also have set up an Employment Network online - you might want to join that one and post the pictures there as well since they are more directly connected to the Employment Network.

Let me know if you have any questions.
