FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK KEEP ON KEEPING ON

It feels like just the other day we were packing away our Christmas decorations and here we are already getting ready to celebrate Easter! In this month’s issue, and in celebration of International Women’s month, we have a few articles around inspirational women such as Julie Taylor who is training for the Two Oceans Half Marathon to raise funds for her cancer treatment (pg 3), and 102-year-old Nellie van Dyk who is enjoying her retirement, having lived in Stanford all her life (pg 23).

I thoroughly enjoyed interviewing musician Takura Terry and his partner, Manex, as they continue to wow fans around the Cape Penin-

And did you know there’s a new and very stylish-looking wine bar opening up in town? Check out pg 7.

Soon we’ll be enjoying tacos and tequilas too, when La Cantina opens its doors (pg 22). There’s no better place to be than in Stanford!

May you enjoy reading this issue and wishing you and yours a very happy Easter!
