DEar Joe,
I think you are right! I wwent to a school, as an oddessy of the mind
coach, and of course, was looking at all of the art in the media center and
on the walls. I was so disappointed! I thought, oh my I must not be
getting throught to my kids, because THIS work is soooo beautiful! Well, I
was feeling down and then realized I was at a High School! Great projects,
which I stole.
Progression makes a world of difference. And who amoungst us hasn't
recreated a project that we had in college that was just too much fun not to
pass on!

Becky
