I enjoyed seeing the Bethesda scenes, it's been 6 months since I was inside the beltway;) Creative title too Kristen.

All because of one seventeen year old? Sara Boltuck was not alone in the efforts to change this. Almost my entire senior class wrote letters to change the law back. Many other seventeen year olds helped to have this law changed. Give others their credit too!
