Napa high student samples life, lawmaking inside the Beltway
Napa High School student Guillermo Llamas earned a chance to test his mettle in the leadership capital of the nation, Washington, D.C., earlier this month. Llamas, 17, who will be a senior next year, spent 10 days in Washington with the Congressional Youth Leadership Council, a nonprofit, nonpartisan agency that provides leadership programs to students nominated by educators around the country, and College Board, a nonprofit helping students prepare for college.

With Napa schools out, I’m spending more time these days with my two best pals and grandsons, Robbie, nearing 13, and Phil, who’ll be 9 tomorrow. I thank God for the time I’ve been given to share some of their adventures and maybe teach them something of value along the way.
