Colleen ’s comments from the The Perks Of Being A Book Addict group.

I echo everyone's sentiments! Thanks to the great team and team captains - wonderful job done.

I'm signed up for Tower Teams - hope to see some of you there.

Mini - not sure if #28 works, it's hard to see (there were children demonstrating at this bridge). I listened to the audio and although the civil rights demonstrators tried to order their food at a segregated southern lunch counter, I'm not sure if any specific food/drink was ordered - maybe coffee but can't be sure about that, nor if any utensil mentions as part of this either.

Mini - Would this qualify for a classical painting look? Or else white text on cover? I put it on the mini under painting but wherever you think best.
