One of my favorite spaces in the @librarycongress Thomas Jefferson Building is the Ceremonial Office that we have opened to the public to see. It has a hidden vault where the contents of Abraham Lincoln’s pockets the night of his assassination were kept.
Oh nothing… just partying as I finish this book by @SaraKugler. Thanks for your student centered approach! I can’t wait to share these ideas with teacher candidates. @MasonCEHD

Are you running short on time? DM me and I will share my letter for you to copy and paste. I've totally been there before--wanting to help, but not having time to draft a letter from scratch. More than happy to share.
An amazing story and an amazing gift for this family.

β€œBaseball rescued me, us, and continues to. There is something beautiful about the game. It’s slow. It’s open. Wide open." This is how baseball saved an Iran hostage, not once, but twice: latimes.com/politics/story/2…

Column One: How baseball saved an Iran hostage, not once, but twice

The 52 American hostages freed after 444 days in Iran were given lifetime passes to Major League Baseball games. Forty years later, one hostage still cherishes his "golden ticket."
