Miss Kaity Goes To Washington!


As a Honewell Presidential Scholar, our Kaity is spending the week in Washington, D.C. She has met many wonderful people from all over the world! Her roommates are from Chicago, Florida, and Minnesota, and she has a friend that has come from the Czech Republic. She said, on Monday, that she wished she was born in England so that she could have that beautiful accent! (Go figure, a kid wants to be born someplace to get a cool accent!!)Today, she toured the U.S. Capital building, The Supreme Court Building, and has an appointment with Senator Jon Kyl and Congressman John Shadegg as we speak. She also has an opportunity (if she answers her phone!) to meet with a representative of Senator John McCain! She is part of a caucus discussing global warming and has had speakers to listen to (she said yesterday's speakers were not the most exciting that she has ever heard!) She is looking forward to Friday...shopping day! Hopefully, she won't have a stroke when she gets back...I cleaned, or rather, organized her room for her!(Watch for the mushroom cloud coming from our direction late Saturday afternoon!!)
