Then I gave him a quick tour around town hall and the council chambers. Read more

Tuesday I practiced my Bollywood dance. This dance will be held on October 13th.

Those include Mayor Pro-Tem Lori Bush, North Carolina Representative Gale Adcock, and Morrisville Mayor T.J. Cawley. I now know all the steps in my dance but will need to be able to do it without mistakes. Practice on the group dance will begin in September. Read more
