They came from the local area in general, but also Vermont & some from Mass. - a pretty good trip. - One thing stood out, - the kids as a group were VERY well behaved, (not saints) but a refreshing change. - Another thing, except for two women, - there were NO "walking whales" among the parents, all looked just great. - What's the difference here? - Less government determining acceptable behavior, and instead FAR MORE parental involvement in their children's upbringing. . http://fortat4.org/ [/quote]    Upload an Image File From Your PC For Insertion in Your Post    -  HTML is OFF | Forum Code is ON   Check here to include your profile signature.
