America at Work

I keep thinking about the lumber manufacturer where we bought our firewood.  Walter Brothers was family owned and run.  It was a nice operation and told him so.  I saw over a dozen pickups and beaters from the employees parked around   It looked as though they were busy.  Currently, they are going 60 hours a week making pallets for John Deere in Moline, IL.  So John Deere must be busy.  I see these as good signs for the economy.  The family was employing many locals and shipping their product to a neighboring state where they were employing people, etc.  It was exciting to see America at work.
