WordPress User Training

“Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You’re off to Great Places!
You’re off and away!

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.

You’re off to Great Places!
Today is your day!
Your mountain is waiting,
So… get on your way!”

Oh, the Places You’ll Go! by Dr. Seuss
