Attending the Connections over Coffee at First Northern Bank was a great opportunity to network with other professionals in Dixon. The highlight of the morning for me was the chance to visit with a great old friend of mine, John Vasquez. We have known each other since our teen years when he worked for his family-owned Vasquez Deli in Vacaville. Now for many years he has been our representative on the Solano County Board of Supervisors. I regret that I didn’t get a photo with him, but it was really nice to see him there. Thank you First Northern for a nice get-together and delicious coffee and pastry. (fb)
