Dragon Slayed, Dragons Tamed

First off is the Dragon slayed.
The community of 2/3 of
Bonner county who voted
yesterday, said NO, HELL NO.

I was one of the 5,814 who voted
NO...only 769 said yes.

Next up is the school building
levee. And as much as we all
hate taxes. There is hardly any
of us who can vote truly against
this one. We know we are getting
a great deal of children in this
area in the next 5 years. It takes
time to build another school. It takes
time to find an area to build on, as the
high school doesn't have the area.
Our own little town needs addition to it.
We are now running out of the school
and 3 modular buildings.
What we will be looking for is, will
they asked for what they need, or will
they try to hit us up for 20 years of
need. But that is to come yet.
One Dragon slayed. The people
have spoken.

The next two Dragons were done
with kindness and agreements.
We got consideration out of
both companies. And they
are making changes to keep
in mind the community as well.

One of them I went to a meeting
yesterday, and for a while the
only woman there. I spoke my
mind, I backed up with pictures.
I even had a sample to show.
While they were understanding
of the pictures. It was the sample
that hit home. So they are changing
one area, and the equipment they
want to put in will hopefully take
care of the other area.

All in all two good days. And my
kneecaps didn't shake once.
