| CL ASS NOTES school and have accepted a nurse practitioner residency position in California. I just returned from my threeweek trip to Kenya doing a medical mission trip as well as a safari. It was magical and truly humbling. I hope everyone’s doing well.” Courtlandt Pennell and wife of 28 years Anne Lamb have moved back to Vermont after “an amazing nine-year adventure in Breckenridge, Colo.. It is so great to be HOME (although I could do without the bugs). Have been fortunate to see many 92-ers and other UVM alums since our return. Hoping our next reunion is well-attended.” Christopher Marshall Robbins writes, “After 25 years in Boston, my wife (Mel) and I moved to Dorset, Vt., where our youngest son (Oakley, 18) is attending Burr & Burton Academy, while our other two daughters (Sawyer, 24; Kendall, 22) reside in New York City and Los Angeles. In 2016, I launched a men's retreat business called Soul Degree—helping guys find more meaning in their lives. Needless to say I think often about the glorious sunsets over Lake Champlain and mid-week turns at Stowe.”
