Health care plan a nightmare scenario
What’s the big rush?
I had two grandmothers. That’s not special in itself.
Most people do.
My Minnesota grandmother – born a couple of miles east of Fort Ridgely – and my Ten-nessee grandmother had very different experiences of life.
There are so many people in all of our lives who not only are willing to offer a helping hand, but these same people consistently go above and beyond to help when the call comes.
Over the past few months, there have been many people like that in my life who have bent over backwards to provide something extra for me or for someone in my family.
The past few days have been relatively quiet in the Redwood Area, as the two weeks of non-stop action from TRAM through the end of Farmfest are now wrapped up.
We want to congratulate everyone who was involved with these and other events, including the Redwood County Fair, for the great demonstrations of community shown to those who were visiting our town. We appreciate the fact that so many volunteers showed up to help – making these events successful beyond what we would have envisioned.

A state quarantine has been issued on firewood, ash trees and ash tree products in two Minnesota counties after this week's discovery of emerald ash borer.
A few people do so much to make my Mem-orial Day a wonderful experience. We have a great program at our community center starting at 6:30 p.m. with the Lucan Area Band playing until 7. If that doesn’t get you in a patriotic mood, nothing will.
It is with deepest appreciation that we send this thank you to you for your part in helping to making our event the success it was.

Over the May 16-17 weekend, I had the privilege of attending Captain Dan Fun Days in Lucan. Then on the following Monday morning, I read the article “Sharing the Love in Lucan” by Rae Kruger. That article did a fabulous job of covering the loving reason for the event. After reading that, I felt compelled to add a little more to the story to explain the “sparkle and essence” of the days.
During Memorial day weekend, my wife and I visited many cemeteries in the area.
Some weeks ago I wrote to the paper the Schmidt Country Riders were again hosting a ride to raise money for the St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital. The ride was May 16.
