Oh Hellers

The Richmond faction instead of the Ohio group of the "Oh Hellers"# are here for a short rare two day visit. My Granddaughter-in -law is becoming quite a card shark. Genes by osmosis works.

Thursday night before they left to drive part way here their subdivision of over 900 homes had a swim meet. My 5 year old great-grandson swam in a 25 ' (one pool length) free style (occasional dog paddle break) race. I presume age division. My great-granddaughter (age 8) was in 3 events a 25 and a 50 freestyle; her form was darn good for kids that had only this year entered into any formal swimming program, and a 25 backstroke which she won her heat.

In this day and age, video cameras, smart phones, Facebook, computers can capture ans share all such events.

I have been very impressed by this small community of mixed interracial blue and and white couple low average income middle class provisions for recreation and its the school system.

Needless to say there will be no serious blog today unless a "stop the press" situation occurs.

Happy Great Grandfather Day,


# "Oh Hell" is a 10 deal card game,which has been very family competitive for well over 40 years. The Grandchildren and some of the Children look forward to it. Best played with 5 players.

MEMO

The Council meeting lasted until 12:20 AM. Don't anticipate any reports before noon .

According to the CN online story the BOE special meeting was in reference of Gallon. No he did not resign. But the lame duck board instead minimized action directed against Gallon for his role in the inappropriate hirings. The punishment did not fit the crime. However the new board may feel that they no longer have the opportunity to act. I believe that legally they do but we must be given the contents of the reported letter of reprimand. This can not be hidden by executive privilege.

More later.

10 AM :Note, the BOE story is not in my print edition.
