There are a couple of things i think are worth noting, one is that there may be flexibility about the regulations of certain medications considering being able to pay for tele medicine for many Rural Communities who do do not have access, this would be a real important part.

Torques the majority of the staff here, im reaping that sometimes. But again, i have an investment to give the kids, what was given to me. As a former beacon student, i had many, many different Staff Members continue to invest their time in me, treat me like a little brother and even like a cousin.

Its hard for the fire engines to get out of there. So theres always a question about is this where you really want to do more on the fire station or do you want it to be moved off of the pier
