If you know anything about me, I apparently love an odd job that provides a little cash flow -- courier for a law office, waitress, concession stand operator, cafeteria cashier (yes, indeed), an online boutique owner, and a tour guide. None of which are related to either of the degrees which I have mounted or hidden in my house. Well, maybe the tour guide. I was in my element with that job. A married lady arriving freshly to the Hudson Valley with a ring on her finger needed a job -- I didn't need a job. I just wanted one. I like to stay busy. Here we were at the United States Military Academy, and I wanted to be telling the story. It has MANY stories by the way. And so, I dressed myself in the appropriate black and gold attire, climbed on the bus, and gave my 90 minute spill about all things West Point. Here's where it gets interesting. This is where this blog is about to turn.

We are Columbine
Friday, April 19, 2019
Yesterday, I watched the Today Show do a beautiful piece paying homage to the 13 victims of the Columbine shooting that occurred on April 20, 1999. I sat there with tears streaming down my face as pictures of the school and former students went across the screen. Bayley continued to play, but there was I -- stuck in awe and in my memories. Tomorrow marks twenty years since this tragic day.
