Hey Hunter -

I took a little time to mess around with the Foundation logo some more. I
basically started pushing the ones I liked from the last round. Still in
that "light/flame" mode, this time a bit more stylized and abstract. But
ultimately it's up to you and your family to decide if there are any
directions you like.

Anyway, if you have time to share and get feedback, please do. I am happy
to chat if that's the best way to communicate your thoughts.

Hope you and the rest of the family are well. Please say hi to Kathleen.

Rick
