It's just the right time.

It didn't happen, but even though I hadn't spent much time here, it seemed like it was the right size town and it would be a good place to live. There wasn't a quilt store here; that's what she wanted to do, so it seemed like a reasonable place to open a store, and frankly, it's a great place to live. I love it -- I would never go back to the Tri-Cities.

Maybe we're peaking at the right time.

We had a very tempestuous time. We were ready to kill each other. It was really great for me personally to realize that it could change from that.

(Levies) have become the lifeblood of the district. We're not out to add new programs. They're to maintain our programs.

We've been able to put together a very strong group of educators in this district, and an awful lot of hard work is paying off for us.
