School
My Favorite Teacher Was Henry Wilson, Jr.High History, He inspired me to travel and see the world. under favorites it ask about a dream Vacation... I have traveled the world and there is truly no place like home... therefore my dream vacation would be to see all of the US, just turn me loose with an RV and lots of money and that is what I would do.
