[Vision2020] New High School

[David M. Budge]

No longer a citizen of my dear Moscow, I'll leave it to others to 
burnish the the policy debate about MHS.  However, being the third 
generation to have graduated from "The Gray Lady of Third Street" I have 
but this to say:

I'm grateful for two things: First, there is a statute of limitations 
and second, I'm glad that old football field can't talk.

Cheers,

Dave Budge

ps.  For those of you who remember, the embryonic beginnings of Christ 
Church was just over the hill to the west of the football field.  It was 
called "God's Garage."  I used go there because they let us smoke, 
tolerated the vulgarity of our youthful yaps, and had free coffee.  The 
Wilsons seem to have been arguing with someone ever since.
