I know folks don’t want to clog up their inboxes- but this one is really worth getting!

Grateful you were willing to put this panel together!

Incredibly grateful for this family… 2012, 2021, 2024. The addition of Emi has been key!

Dear non-MN Friends, He is genuinely this good- not just as a ‘midwestern dad’- but on policy. Some say he is the ‘Education Governor’- I would say he is the ‘Children and Families Governor’. We are so proud to share Tim Walz with the rest of America.

I love #MPA- mostly the people- this #StudyGroup sends me pictures from time to time when they get together- each other’s schools- bars… when in MPA Kenny Newby was in Forest Lake, Mr. Williams in SoWashCo, Sarah Lightner in SPPS and Steve Searl in Bloomington.

And she will make GREAT Governor for MN!

My mentor and colleague, Dr. Neal Nickerson used to take me to Annie’s-today, I got to do the same, celebrating Nasreen Fynewever, an amazing GRA, scholar, and friend, and the recipient of the scholarship in Neal’s name.

Morning walks look like this when I stay at my best friend’s house…

Okay, MPA Principal ⁦Heidi Howe⁩ is having a great #FirstDayOfSchool in ⁦Rochester Public Schools⁩! 📸 ⁦Post Bulletin⁩

He is talking about, children- CHILDREN! We all need to vote and take the friend we avoid uncomfortable political conversations with when we do.

Just in case I am not the last person to discover Anton Treuer and his daughter have their Ojibwe word of the day posted on X… sharing for anyone who may be like me… a little behind on social media.
