"OUT OF A MOUNTAIN OF DESPAIR, A STONE OF HOPE"
Read all about it in my
column this week. (By the way there is an edit error towards the end - Obviously I know not to refer to something's proximity as "near at")
I would like to say a very big Thank You to the kids' teachers last week: A World War II Veteran, a Park Ranger, an actor, Martin Luther King, and a stranger.

| Wyatt meets a real live hero. He told us about being a Pilot and taking off from and landing on an aircraft carrier in the ocean. BRAVE! |
 |
| The Park Ranger at Gettysburg who taught us all about how all the dead bodies were buried, what went into the making of the first National Cemetery, and all kinds of things about the Gettysburg Address. | | |
|
 |
| The actor at the Smithsonian where we participated in a role playing - reenactment of the events that took place at the Lunch Counter Sit-in at the Woolworth's in Greensboro North Carolina in 1961. | | |

A real section of the lunch counter.
 |
| Martin Luther King - and the people we met at the memorial who shared stories of living in segregated Alabama. Full disclosure, I did not take this photo, we were there at night and it was too dark. This is from Google images. But the one below is us... Gives you an idea how big it is! | | |
