Dr. Goodwell Pays a Visit Dr. Bill Crounse, longtime local physician, who has had a career in disseminating public information, appeared as DrGoodwell.com and gave the BBRC a look into the near-future relationship of doctor and patient.
The doctor talked about Overlake Medical Center and how it’s grown. “The growth of Overlake Hospital directly corresponds to the growth in Bellevue and the Eastside.” The hospital medical center occupies 19 acres, which includes the new six-story medical office tower that is now fully occupied. There is a new lobby at the main hospital entrance, and the center has just opened nine new operating suites. MORE
Board Action Taken The BBRC Board met on Tuesday, August 14, and handled several items of Club interest. The next regular meeting of the board will be Tuesday, September 18, a week later than usual, at the Glendale Country Club. MORE

Apologies for the billing being delayed. Some day, before I create a small ripple of news at my demise, I will tell the story of “Why July 2001 was great for the Mariners hile John Mix stewed.” Some 50 members have replied to the billing notice and the treasurer would greatly appreciate hearing from the balance. Thanks.
And now, thoughts for the previous, current, and future weeks:

"Life is just a minute, but eternity is in it." – Unknown
Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. – Albert Einstein
