I enjoyed talking energy issues with @WrightHennepin members yesterday at their annual meeting. People know how important energy issues are today - amply demonstrated at this meeting. @MNRuralElectric members are on the job!
I started Saturday on the boat with my lovely wife and before noon was taking delivery of the motorcycle Dad built that he thought it was time I have - and enjoyed cruising the neighborhood with my daughter. What a great Spring day in Minnesota!
Thanks to the great team at MREA for the surprise celebration of 10 years @MNRuralElectric The cupcakes were great and the time together is always a joy.
