A Sandra Day Day at Paint Bank

If you ever doubted that Paint Bank is the epicenter of all that's glorious and skirts the light fantastic with such gusto that even the media can't keep up with it...then you're in for a rude awakening. Just Friday last, "The Supreme People"rolled into Paint Bank....I mean really SUPREME...the first woman ever appointed to the Supreme Court, Sandra Day O'Connor,(of course you knew that) and close friends, graced us with her presence. The "Lady Day" was absolutely charming and everything you'd expect her to be and more. She toured with the accompanimentof our "BossMam, who is obviously connected in high places, and didn't miss a square inch of the retail, Mill, Farm and Restaurant...even walked across the swinging bridge. Her lunch pick of our newly introduced "Great White Buffalo" sandwich and hand cut deep-fried onion strings was a befitting choice of "The Supreme" for America's original red meat our great Tatonka (word for Buffalo in Native American). After a nice visit with patrons and employees, she made time to have a picture taken with a young female admirer which I'm sure made it's way around her classroom. What a nice day in Paint Bank (pun intended) Here's to you Ms.O'Connor for proving our belief that great people are put in high places for good reason. Court's adjourned!
