Hope to see everyone at the Fabulous Fall Sectional tournament—it promises to be a wonderful time.

Information on the 2019 LSR is below and the full schedule of events can be found at http://www.acblunit174.org/Flyers/2019_LSR_Final.pdf . My wife and I were in Sedona Arizona last month and we went on a Full Moon hike at Sedona State Park. We started at the Visitors' Cen ter about an hour before sunset and were led by an experienced guide through the park and up to the top of a small mountain just before sunset. We were able to see the sun set behind the beautiful red rock mountains and then turn around 1 and watch the full moon rise in the east. It was spectacular and definitely an "ooh and aah" moment. One of the hikers was from the area and said "we see this all the time…" Well, that got me thinking. How many times do we do or see something all the time and not see the goo d in the moment? My learning from that comment is to try not to forget the awesomeness all around us and to recognize the good things that are happening.

The original intention was to publish the MS. which is referred to in Halliwell's Dictionary (Preface, p. xx) in the following terms : " No printed glossary of Isle of Wight provincialisms has yet appeared; but a very valuable one in MS., compiled by Captain Henry Smith, was most kindly placed at my disposal by his relative, Charles Eoach Smith, Esq., E.S.A. It has been fully used in the following pages." This MS. collection Mr. Eoach Smith has now offered to the Society, and has added to this the favour of editing it himself, with all such corrections and additions as seemed to him to be most advisable.
