I recently attended the ribbon-cutting of an exciting new store in Bristol, SD. It was a joyous occasion. The entire town turned out and it looked as good as I've ever seen it look in more than a quarter-century. The ``South Dakota Made Store'' will sell foods, crafts, and art from all over our beautiful State. It is an exciting addition to Bristol and northeastern South Dakota. The program included a recitation of an inspirational poem by its author. He is a very young man whose name is Ryan A. Anderson. The title of the poem is ``University of Dreams.'' I know my colleagues will be as impressed with his beautiful words as I was. His talent and extraordinary ability as a poet of any age is an inspiration to us all. I ask unanimous consent that ``University of Dreams'' be printed in the Record.
