When the storm moved out last night twenty neighbors scattered into the street to remove debris.
That wasn’t only on my block. Neighbors throughout Riverside assessed the damaged and picked it off the streets.
The winds culled the old tired limbs and trunks to make room for new growth. Nature has been doing this for many years. We just built homes under them recently.
Forty five minutes of work and the street was clear…. It takes a village.
The Divorced Dad District worked together and smiled in awe at the damage that was left.
Today is Flag Day…. Not a Sox or Cubs flag! Not a Trump or Pride Flag!
Not a flag of the country where your heritage bleeds.
The American Flag……. The one that flew in Iwo Jima and Ground Zero.
Last night the men, women and young adults picking up branches weren’t Republican or democrat.
They were Americans that worked together in Riverside, Illinois.
GoldBond Up Baby!
