An Old Gentleman and His Printing Museum

Well, one highlight of my day was tryouts for my a cappella club tonight. It was a great success.

But today I'd like to express gratitude for an old gentleman who founded a fantastic printing museum downtown. He's spent a great portion of his life in the business of printing and in the history of printing. I visited his museum today as part of a class field trip. He and two other gentlemen talked about Gutenberg and the whole process of making type and printing copies of the Bible. These gentlemen have a replica of a printing shop and they have everything to print pages of the Bible just the way Gutenberg did. I was impressed by their enthusiasm and their passion for this stuff. I enjoyed their presentation very much. I am grateful for an old gentleman and his marvelous printing museum.
