After a week at the Summer Academy, St. John’s College in Santa Fe is still Grace’s number one choice. Aside from an academic style that really suits her personality, talent and skill sets, she really loves Santa Fe. Who wouldn’t?
Sometimes we cry!
DO NOT STAND AT MY GRAVE AND WEEP.
I AM NOT THERE; I DO NOT SLEEP.
I AM A THOUSAND WINDS THAT BLOW;
I AM THE DIAMOND GLINTS ON SNOW.
I AM THE SUNLIGHT ON RIPENED GRAIN;

I AM THE SWIFT UPLIFTING RUSH
OF QUIET BIRDS IN CIRCLED FLIGHT.

I AM NOT THERE; I DID NOT DIE.

Paint and body work became the largest trade taught in all our prisons. Chop Shops sprung up everywhere. Car theft went ramped because the insurance paid for the drivers responsibility. Political efforts have been used to correct the very problems they created. They have made a little gain on the problems but lost a hundred percent more in lawyer fees and under the table money deals.
We both know that only the driver can keep him or her self from having an accident by thinking about how they are driving, hands on he wheel and feet on the pedals and thinking SAFETY!
