Thanks Northmoor Rd Drivers

Just sending out another Random Act of Kindness sort of thank you. Frequently I have to use Northmoor Rd to get to work and usually during when school is starting. The traffic is very congested but 99% of the time the drivers make the commute easier. I always see someone letting another driver turn out in front of them, either from a side road or from the school drive. No one is honking or getting overly agitated. And people always extend the courtesy "thank you" wave. So thanks for making my commute and others easier!

Beautiful Weather

I have got to say that God's hand was at work very early Friday morning! Can't get anymore positive than the beautiful weather we received just in time for the start of school. I am so thankful that the kiddos will hopefully have cooler buildings to return to on Monday for their first day of school - especially after 3 long weeks of hot weather that surely heated up many school buildings!

Random Act of Kindness

Just wanted to say thanks to the person or persons who moved the garbage out of Charter Oak road last week. I drove by twice that day and the first time almost hit several large pieces of something laying in the road. When I drove back a fwe hours later someone had moved the garbage to the sidewalk. So I just wanted to say thanks for your selfless act. You may have prevented an accident or a blown tire - so a small act that had a bigger impact.

District 150 Open House

I was there Saturday and I have got to say it was pretty cool that the Civic Center is letting the district use the space for free. It was cool to see all of the different schools and especially all of the different community groups that were there. The robots were awesome, free basketballs from the city, free backpacks and of course lots of candy! Plus there were a lot of people that came - saw Mayor Ardis and several school board members and the Regional Supt. Way to go Civic Center and District 150 for coming up with this collaboration in order to share information with the community.

Dream Center

Well I can't think of a better positive story to start this blog with than this one http://www.pjstar.com/php/index.php?/dreamcenter. I can't help but feel a large sense of hope after reading this series of articles. What an amazing group of christians and responsible citizens. I pray they're ready for the huge outpouring of support they'll receive after this series of articles. So big thanks to PJS for supporting a positive cause rather than looking for ways to tear it down.
