Hi, summer. I hope that Jeb talks to the students about our fabulous first president next week. Happy early birthday, George Washington -who not only educated his slaves, but gave them their own property to manage, taught them trades, did all he could to give them a fighting chance to survive with their families intact and free upon his wife's death.

Oh, and there was his incredible character, courage in battle, humility and faith. (^:


BTTT to your thoughts above.

Thanks for your posts on this thread, RC. Great, informative posts, as usual! :)
