People talk a lot about passion, but what is it really? Is it a belief, a very strong belief? Is it a mind set? If you really enjoy your job, it can be said that you are passionate. We appreciate careful attention to detail by those providing us with customer service. Are they passionate about their job? Aurora University (Lindy's alma mater) came out with the statement: Discover what matters. Then build your life around it. Doesn't that describe what we do with/in our lives? But, how far would you be willing to go....?

Today the Riders visited the Little Rock Central High School National Historic Site, and the "Testament" -- the Civil Rights Memorial of the Little Rock Nine on the Arkansas Capitol grounds, in Little Rock.  It was moving. It is timely. The visit presented the Riders with much "food for thought."

We will share our pictures of our visit. September, 1957 wasn't that long ago.... Enjoy the "food for thought."
