As the shuttle bus trundled up the road toward my hometown, I pulled out my phone to go over my agenda for the day:
To-Do List for July 24th
Check with Wade to make sure everything’s set up for the festival
Schedule meeting with Takoda about increased Iron Claw activity
Double-check that the mayoral baby presents went out
Follow up with MP DeBeer about checks and balances for the JFBF
Tell Zion his retirement request is a no-go—no one submitted for the teacher job
Tell Wade to double Zion’s usual pay increase
