Simon,
Thanks for the pics,they were great as usual.
There's something about being able to flip that switch in a student's head
and make the connection that allows them to feel good about themselves and
thier capabilities that just can't be beat.It sort of spoils you for doing
anything else doesn't it?
You must be exceptional at it judging by the looks on the faces of the
students in your pics.
I still think about my old metalshop teacher,Henry Kedron,he's the one
who really started me down the path to believing in my skills and
abilities.He did the same for my youngest brother too,and I know Jon still
thinks about him.Years from now those folks you're teaching will be thinking
about you as they work some stone and it'll bring a smile to thier faces to
remember the man who made it possible for them to do what they love.Seems
you may have landed one of the best jobs on the planet.
They say that as long as someone remembers you and the good you've done
you'll live forever.
Simon my friend,I have a question for you.How does it feel to be immortal?
Bob
