When people talk about "kids nowadays" you often hear about bullying, narcissism (those neverending selfies) mass shootings, drugs, etc. It's nice to hear something positive about them and to see that good things may come :-)Lorenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17848249911635132594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1352258244647772022.post-83634067737357129782014-06-21T11:04:16.910-07:002014-06-21T11:04:16.910-07:00It was a good performance!It was a good performance!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02187854108656107958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1352258244647772022.post-20013465512276826422014-06-21T11:03:51.544-07:002014-06-21T11:03:51.544-07:00That's wonderful, Liz!That's wonderful, Liz!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02187854108656107958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1352258244647772022.post-62910336838703619142014-06-20T19:29:57.590-07:002014-06-20T19:29:57.590-07:00I liked the Modest Mussorgsky ."Night on Bald...I liked the Modest Mussorgsky ."Night on Bald Mountain"...Bravo!groundhoggushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10984702319994276761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1352258244647772022.post-88086219530427682902014-06-20T18:51:37.919-07:002014-06-20T18:51:37.919-07:00Thanks for this thoughtful post, Stephanie. I have...Thanks for this thoughtful post, Stephanie. I have to agree, from my perspective here.The students here seem to be more focused and accomplished than my peers and I were in the late '70's. I met nearly 50 new lifeguards/counselors not quite 2 weeks ago. The average age is probably 21. Not only have they all been team players, giving their all. They also have accepted this 50-something lifeguard into their ranks with a matter-of-fact spirit. I have many new friends since arriving, and they are terrific people. Glad you enjoyed New York with the kids.Liz Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07637095995839638940noreply@blogger.com
