Here is my third column for the
Aitkin Independent Age:
I've attended the Aitkin County Fair almost every year as long as I can remember.
First we would walk
through the 4H and industrial buildings, get food, look at animals,
then, finally, ride the rides. When I was a child, the buildings held
little interest, except for saying hi to my grandfather, Dean Sanford,
at the Minnesota Deer Hunters' Association booth. Now I’m older I find
more than the rides and animals interesting but the industrial buildings
are still where I’d spend the least time, preferentially. But that’s
where I spent the most time this year, because for the first time, I
volunteered at a booth.

This was exceptionally well-written and persuasive. We just got the newspaper with it in it; but Dad showed me that you had a "troll" at the paper's online site. Laughable drivel.
Thanks! Tomorrow I am going to ask about policy on replying to comments. It may be considered more professional not to reply, but I have something concise prepared just in case.
