Happy Colony Days! Well it has been a heck of a year … and now with one under the belt, we hope to build on the improvements and keep turning out a magazine that makes the community proud to be a part of it. My sons Max and Mirac have both acclimated to the magazine publishing life. They turned 4 and 6, respectively, in August, and have dreams of their own one day to make magazines. Max said “It’s not going to be like your magazine … it’s going to be different,” in the confident way he has about him. That is the way it is though, right, the next generation is going to do it “different.” As a dad, I try to understand that different is not wrong, and what works well for the next generation might not be the way I would have done it. What I know I need to do is give the kids the power to do it different, better than we did ... and provide them the opportunity to engage with their own passion and offer my support. Whether my kids want to be magazine publishers or astronaut scientists, I just love them and try to remember that they will do things “different” than I did. The community we live in is going to be different soon, and I hope everyone takes the opportunity to voice their thoughts on what kind of different they want the community to be. Take the opportunity to vote on local matters, local candidates, and make a local difference. We have a great community and we are about to experience a month of great things happening as a result of people who have gotten involved and made a local difference. Thanks to all the people in the community who have spent the last year getting read for Colony Days, pumpkin patches, corn mazes, harvest, and all the good things we get to enjoy here. We truly live in one of the most wonderful places on earth, and it is because of the people who care enough to do things right that we all get to enjoy this together. Thank you for being the best part of COLONY Magazine, and we wish you all Happy Colony Days! I want to make a special note to mention a Paso Robles native and wonderful Atascadero resident, Maggie Vandergon. She is the founder of the Atascadero Colony Days Committee and the reason for our Colony Days celebration. She is 91 years old, and continues to support the longest-standing Atascadero tradition — Colony Days. She was the chairperson of the parade for 20 years, and has guided a new group to take the reins. Please join us as a volunteer, sponsor, and supporter to keep this wonderful tradition alive. Please enjoy this issue of COLONY Magazine.
