I just came home from the gym to find in my building lobby a fresh stack of 360 West November issues, with your story teased on the cover.
I am absolutely thrilled with this stunning piece. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate it and how delighted everyone at Hotel Chaco are going to be. Mark's photos are ridiculously great.
And may I just say, wow, what a storyteller you are, Irene. You made me want to be right there on that trip.
I hope we get to work with you again...and again! (10/27/17)

In your November issue of The Costco Connection I found the article "Bees are in crisis: How does that affect us?" written by Irene Middleman Thomas as interesting as articles that I read in National Geographic and Smithsonian Magazine. (11/20/13)

On Nov. 6, while going through the Fort Worth Star-Telegram travel section, I saw a picture of a star that brought back wonderful childhood memories.The story headline was “Relaxing Roanoke.” Irene Middleman Thomas wrote a wonderful piece about one of the most beautiful and interesting cities in the world.I was born in Roanoke, but live in Fort Worth now. I love our city and appreciate that others love it, too.

I recently read the Khan Academy article in the Costco Connection. I wanted to formally extend my gratitude for including such a wonderful feature article about Khan Academy. (8/27/13)

I always enjoy reading through the Costco Connection and seeing all the new products available or the story of a member who found a niche to structure a successful business around. But I was truly blown away by three separate articles in the August Connection. The Digital School of Sal Khan about a new teaching approach, Elements of Excellence profiling Jeff Charbonneau's teaching successes and Goal Zero about bringing power to small African villages - all three of these articles are so inspiring they brought me to tears. To read about individuals who are so dedicated to making a difference in our world is both inspiring and encouraging. I hope these articles motivate other Connection readers to do what they can to better our world. I know it did for me. (8/1/13)
