This morning I had the privilege of attending a ribbon cutting ceremony at Lampire Biological Laboratories just outside of Everett. This is a 30 year old business that is adding on. I met the owner, Greg Krug, in Harrisburg earlier this year. He is a very nice person who has done well with his growing business. He also has a facility in eastern PA as well as a farm in Bedford County. Life or bio sciences is high tech stuff. As a member of the Communications and Technology Committee in the Senate I am learning about this fast growing and important industry which is improving the health of the world. I forgot to mention yesterday that last night I caught a ballroom dance with one of the ladies from the “Golden Nuggets” group in Altoona. This group of seniors gets together regularly to dance at different social clubs and senior centers around Blair County. I told my partner that I couldn’t dance and ended up tramping on her foot 3 times. She was very gracious and didn’t complain. I’ll have to take some lessons before my next ballroom experience.
