It was an experience I would never give up and I hope I made a difference for those students, but underneath the apple crusted desk, I was always a writer, an observer and a student of human behavior and responses. My imagination tends to fly in a million directions and it takes a cage to keep it focused.

Sometimes because their behavior is so outlandish, over the top, that it makes me giggle. Other times, that outlandish behavior is dangerous to others and…

On the first snowy day, one day after our first winter storm, on time and with plenty of enthusiasm, our installation crew arrived. When workmen say they will be ready to start at 8 am you somehow don’t expect them to arrive shortly after 7 am to look things over, introduce themselves and start setting up. But arrive they did and with everything they needed. It took an astonishingly short…
