A fire, a fire sale and 91st bday party

Sometime while I was mid-flight to Florida to attend my father-in-laws 91st birthday celebration Superior’s Husky oil refinery went kaboom. We checked updates during the day concerned for those we left behind. It cut some workdays short in our family but nothing worse for now.

Last night a friend sent me the DNT’s story about the school district’s fire sale price set for Duluth Central.

All is not sunny in Florida either. The Palm Beach Post reported today that huge swaths of the everglades mangroves (up to 90 percent) have been killed by hurricane Irma.
