He went to the urgent care, and they told him he had scratched his eye and it was healing. Turns out, it was probably from blowing leaves without eye protection.

Taskforce off to good start

We attended the March 21 meeting of the Land Development Taskforce and were pleasantly surprised by what we heard and saw.
