The Observation Deck

Jim and I took yet another trip to the scene of what I can only call a miraculous news event ... discovering three young ladies ALIVE after 10+ years in captivity.

I have to tell you .... it was the most bizarre scene and feeling. While the media was there to do their jobs, citizens of Cleveland exuded so much joy, love, hope. This tough City needed this ... time to be elated, time to be uber-joyous. People were just so genuinely HAPPY! I have to admit, I was, too. And though this did not occur in Our City of Lakewood, these are Our Neighbors.
