People around town

This cropped jpeg of Paul Johnson's caricature of Jeannie has been my desktop wallpaper the past few days. I want to share it with 56572 readers. I could do a series on the "Pillars of Pelican Rapids" but instead I will call the series what I named the folder on my computer "People around town." Paul Johnson will get his day in the sun as I am planning a series about the artists of 56572.
Jeannie reminds me a lot of her Dad. A lifelong resident, she has done tons for the town, besides keep the First non-club Watering Hole open for more than a year. She is a hands on lady who can move mountains.


You can call me Al. Most address me as Mr. I'm Al, the ex-AD, teacher and coach. I'm the Al Michaels of Channel Five, play-by-play and color all-in-one, the 21st Century Oats LeGrand. I call the shots like I see them. I play guitar. I define the best of what 56572 has to offer.
