I’m giving up swimming with my Grandsons this morning …

…to campaign for the School Board.

What sacrifices won’t I make for the Duluth Schools and this on a day with temps that feel like 105 degrees! Not only that but I gave my big air conditioner to my son to help him survive a St. Louis Missouri summer.

My next post will be of the op ed piece I submitted yesterday to the Duluth News Tribune but that I’ll be recalling. I’m pulling it back and putting it in the blog because two items in today’s Tribune require a new and more hopeful op ed from me. If I’m going to get elected and fix our schools I’ll have to have the tools. Those tools are money, honesty and trust. In today’s Tribune I see all three peeking at me around the edge of the corner. More to come.
