My last post was about my new grandson, Aidan. As soon as I wrote that one, it was my intent for the next post to be about my dad, Big Ed Johnson. Well, that is just going to have to wait. There is a local story here in Wisconsin, which is just too good to miss.

               In these incredibly troubled times, full of budget cuts and political tensions, there is a 7 year old boy in Orfordville, WI that is actually doing something to make his community better. He is doing this with no Federal funds, no State support, and even with little parental supervisor.

                As you will see in this article, young Benjamin has decided that Ordfordville needs a new public library and he is going about doing something to make it happen.

                As so many across the country choose to moan and complain about the state of things, this second grader is actually making a difference. This is especially striking here in Wisconsin as there are so many people who are so angry with the Governor that they are investing countless hours and millions of dollars to the Recall Walker effort.

                Rather than complain about it, or ask the government to fix it, this young man is just going out and doing it.
