As some of you may know, Marion County Public Schools were closed this week due to Hurricane Dorian. There have been those who didn’t understand why. The Star Banner ran a story with video where Sherriff Billy Woods explained what went into that decision. Kudos to Sherriff Woods. The video can be seen on Marion County Sherriff’s Facebook page.

I have to agree it was the right decision. Fortunately we will avoid the major effects of Dorian. Better to take precautions now than wait until it was too late.

Yep, hindsight is always 20/20. I think some folks are rather narrowly focused and forget to think beyond what affects them personally. I am sure I have been guilty at one time or another, but I am always willing to learn and always grateful to the educator. Once I get the walking on water thing conquered, I’ll come up with my own commandments. :-)
