My Side of the Fence

The danger isn't going too far. It's that we don't go far enough.

I gotta brag a little

So, my daughter volunteered to do a video for the City along the lines of tall grass enforcement.  She and her friends created a club around the idea, set a budget, wrote scripts – really the whole deal was done indpendent of adults until the day of filming.  They even raised the money by baking cookies and cupcakes and selling them.  There is an article in the Journal Messenger about it here and their youtube video is here.

They would like to do one more video for the City about grafitti.  The group has vowed to raise more money and buy better equipment but we’ll see what happens.  I’ve had some folks email with offers to help out so we’ll see what shakes out.

Sarah and I are both very proud of the group!

Sad News

One of our career firefighters, Zygimantas Zalys, died last Thursday from cancer.  There was a fundraising event – a softball tournament about 3 weeks ago where  I met “Z”, his wife and child.  I didn’t know him for long but I am saddened to see him go.  Please pray for Z and his family.  Information on the service is here.
