Make a better world

While doing some on-line research, I ran across an essay about working together.  Going to quote part of it here.  It speaks for itself.

"People working together is the most important thing we can do. . . . People working together can change the world...

People working together can lead to many good things. Working together can resolve problems. Working together you learn to respect others and the differences you have.

When you work together with some, you can find out that you may like the person you thought you didn't like. Working together can help people not to fight. People working together can even end wars.
People must work together because we only have one Earth to live on. People working together can start as a little thing. 

You never know how your actions can inspire other people to do great things and actually change the world and bring people closer together."

Pretty good, huh?  Simple and deep at the same time.  Award winning essay written by a ten year old.

There's more to this essay.  There's more I have to say about this essay.  That's for another day.

Exclusively Yours

I love Jo Stadler for two reasons....well, actually for three reasons:
1. Cold brewed coffees
2. My favorite pasta
3. She opened the cutest gift shop


Uniquely Yours just off I90 exit 284, Kimball, SD. Next to John's Tire, near the Clark gas station.

Osage Lakota Artworks

I'm knowing Laurie Apple will be gettin' some of my money at her newly opened business, Osage Lakota Artworks. Formerly an e-based business, Osage Lakota Artworks is now a bricks and mortar offering wonderful beadwork, canes, beading supplies and prairie turnips.

Located just off Interstate 90 exit 284 at Kimball, SD, near the tractor museum.

Busy, busy

Senior Project and Scholarship night tonight.

FFA Banquet tomorrow night.

Especially touching to hear Dave Lehr's tribute to his wife Sarah.  He said the scholarship given in her memory was for a student with a "can do" attitude.  He said that is what Sarah was all about, a can do attitude. Amen.

Today's the Day

J-A-N-S Frosty King is opening today. I was advised to come early and stand in line, and no I was not going to get free food for being first in line. In fact, I was advised that I would probably not be first in line.  Taking camera, photos will be posted.
