I know a lot of people here have a hard time with their family's...but I'm trying to focus of the
good right now! The good (we can do that, right?) or maybe just the funny.
Okay here's my first story...
When I was about 15 (so not a long ago), we went to visit my grandparents. I love them, but at
the time I thought going to a little tiny town, in one of the least most populated states in the
United States would be boring. :eek:
My grandfather loves fishing, and with a big river about 2 miles from there house, of course we
had to go. Being a teenager at the time, I had to make a face. You know...put on a "I don't want
to goooo!" show. LOL
So we went. Life jackets, snacks. Live bait (gross). Soda (or pop as my grandfather calls it). I'm
sure he had some candy there somewhere.
Mid-summer and it was still cold with the wind. We liked stopping at the sand bars. Some can be
big, with lots to look at. We stopped at one, my grandfather could only get the boat about 10 feet
from the shore. So I got out...started running. All the sudden, there no ground under me and I'm
down. Under the water. It's freezing! I re-surface, and climb out as fast as I can. The wind was a
hell of a lot colder then.
I turn to look at my grandfather, he looks all solemn...and says “I saw that hole."
LOL. Life lesson, and funny! :) I miss my grandparents :(

TEACHERS
A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning. The
task of the modern educator is not to cut down jungles, but to irrigate deserts. The task of
the modern educator is not to cut down jungles, but to irrigate deserts. Education is the
key to success in life, and teachers make a lasting impact in the lives of their students. A
good teacher, like a good entertainer first must hold his audience's attention, then he can
teach his lesson. One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with
gratitude to those who touched our human feelings. The curriculum is so much necessary
raw material, but warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the
child.
