she is alongside many other EHS alums. I spent the summer in Charleston living with Parham Barber, Eliza Coker, Lily Fowle, Avery McIntosh, Carson Roberts, and Amanda Weisiger. Classmates Spencer Graves, Graham Jones, Spencer McKenna, Clay Dunnan, Liz Elliott, Nikki Poppiti, Chase Porter, and Whit Slagsvol were also Charleston residents this summer. Ann deSaussure lived downtown in June, but we still got to see her frequently all summer long. We had a blast doing all sorts of fun things and enjoying an endless flow of visiting Episcopal alums and even current students! Of course, we were all busy working, too. Parham worked in the bakery at Piggly Wiggly, decorating cakes with her creative style. The Pig is big on Parham, considering their cake sales went up 30 percent after she started decorating their cakes. She also got the Employee-of-the-Month Award in July! Eliza volunteered with the Spoleto Art Festival and for the Historical Society of Charleston. Lily shared her native taste of tropical islands with Charleston, while selling Italian Ice downtown all summer. Avery worked as a line chef at a gourmet food café called Caviar and Bananas. Carson worked for a jewelry artist, along with a few babysitting jobs on the side. Amanda took classes at College of Charleston. To our surprise she managed a 7:00 a.m. tennis class in July! I babysat for the children of Allston Moore ’83 while in Charleston. Their son and two daughters were great company all summer long. We spent a lot of time at the pool and the beach. Spencer McKenna worked at Oak Restaurant in downtown Charleston. He brought back delicious leftovers almost every night. Amanda and Eliza both had big summers as Savannah debutantes. We had a big Episcopal weekend in June with Amanda’s party in Savannah on Friday night and Eliza’s party in Bluffton on Satur-

too. Now, I am looking forward to trekking back up to Vermont with Dylan and Avery very soon!

day evening. Over the summer, we saw a lot of Leah Andress, Tommi Coxe, Ann Gordon Pelletier, Marguerite Kleinheinz, and Liz McLean coming in and out of Charleston, too. It was definitely a great way to catch up with ev-
eryone and get back in touch after having completed our first years of college. After Charleston, I went to Pawleys Island with my family. Nick Stewart ’04 and Jesse Davidson ’04 came to visit with Philip and the rest of our family,
Well, it has been quite a summer for us in the Class of 2009. We all have been enjoying our alumni status for a few months now, embarked into the college world, and are very excited about the road that lies ahead. Here are some snippets of what we’ve been up to thus far: Many spent their “final” free summer traveling around the world. Caroline Moncure e-mailed me all the way from the Amalfi Coast of Italy. Caroline reports that she was visiting her sister and that she was on her way to Paris and Normandy with her very good friend, Laetitia, for some sightseeing and touring. Caroline told me that she is very excited to begin at UNC-Wilmington and can’t wait to see everyone again soon. Jack Kelemen reports that he had an adventurous and exciting summer. He went on a three-week backpacking trip though Southern Alaska. Jack told me that the adventure “was pretty sick but I fell on a rock and had to get stitches on my hand as a result.” Paula Pavlova’s summer was filled with lots of trips as well; she spent several weeks in Australia, two days in Dubai, some time in Italy, and enjoyed some down time in the 703 before heading to TCU. Haley Morgan spent some time at home where she visited those of us in NOVA like Paula Pavlova (“p.pavs”) and Kelsey Knutson (“k.k.nuts”). (Those would be Haley’s nicknames.) Haley then traveled extensively before heading off to Clemson; she, Kelsey, and David Block all went to Martha’s Vineyard, and then Haley and Will Reily jetted off on a European adventure to Paris and Amsterdam. Haley reports that she loves Clemson and is a proud sister of Delta Delta Delta!
