Good story for a snowy morning.

Everyone benefitted from this one! It's great to see students doing something concrete, patriotic, and LEARNING.

Reminds me of the time we slipped a 3/4 racing cam in Grandma's 55 Ford.

I wanted to know what they fixed. Thanks stupid reporter for leaving out the details.

Amen. We can all learn from this story. It's the love and gratitude behind the work that makes that ol' truck hummm...

Trisha Mullin brought her husband to the school for the surprise Friday morning. Edward Mullin, a National Guardsman in his third week back from a 13-month tour of duty in Iraq, had asked his wife last year if she could get his truck fixed up for him so he would have something to drive when he came home in January.

Thanks to donations from students and staff and the work of students in the automotive program, she found the best deal in the city. More than $500 was raised in the school and every penny was put into the truck, which students said was in desperate need of the work. Even Trisha Mullin did not know the school was raising money to pay for the repairs.

Good story.

Could we be returning to the America I grew up in, with improvements?
