[2020/05/29 08:39] OliveTree Lighthouse: I love how a simple idea done with enthusiasm and care can do

[2020/05/29 08:41] OptoMystic (scottmerrick.oh): Wow, so inspirational

[2020/05/29 08:41] EmiliaV (emilia856): Amazing that they were allowed to go into the schools so easily. There is usually a lot of rules, red tape etc.

[2020/05/29 08:42] OptoMystic (scottmerrick.oh): True

[2020/05/29 08:43] OptoMystic (scottmerrick.oh): So true about publishing. I had a poem published nationally my junior year of high school and it instilled a lifelong love of writing in me.

[2020/05/29 08:43] OptoMystic (scottmerrick.oh): He has to be a firecracker of a teacher in front of a classroom of kids

[2020/05/29 08:45] OptoMystic (scottmerrick.oh): really

[2020/05/29 08:46] OptoMystic (scottmerrick.oh): such a wealth of humor underlying everything

[2020/05/29 08:48] OliveTree Lighthouse: yes but it's humor out of crazy enthusiasm and passion for what they are able to create. I think it was still there. I hope they are still able to keep it up
