Seeing first-hand to make it become real

As an educator, I try to incorporate a hands-on experience with what we learn and see and read about.
We have been discussing the aftermath of the hurricane along with global warming and how that has and will continue to affect millions of lives.
Last night, my kids were able to see some of that.
We had dinner near Atlantic City with my cousin. He and his company, Alabama Power, drove a massive caravan up to our area to help the power restoration process. We toured the staging area which was quite impressive. With my military background, it reminded me of how our armed forces mobilize large units such as this to help. I believe my kids will remember tonight and in doing so I hope will aid them in making a positive impact on our society.
