Hey everyone,

On a different note, this month I have officially joined Movember and have been growing out my facial hair in support of men’s cancers/health. My goal has been to raise awareness about the cause while raising whatever funds I can. To learn more and make a contribution, check out my Movember profile by clicking here.
An entire year can fly by in a flash. I can’t wait to see what the next year has in store.
Carpe diem,
- Lucas
