Johnny Branson sat in my office in downtown New Boston for quite a while today. I mean, where else would Johnny be, except for downtown in the town he has spent most of his life serving.
We sat and talked for a while about the good, old days. Johnny and I have both been around for a while. We haven’t always seen eye to eye. His eyes aren’t as good as they used to be, and the troubles with mine are well documented. But, Johnny’s eyes on the future are still as bright as ever.
Practically his whole life has been spent guiding New Boston to where it is today. He and I haven’t always agreed on that either, but it is pretty obvious who was right. New Boston sits right now with a very bright future, with projects in the works to make it even brighter. There are new businesses in the pipeline, a new deal to provide water, and a project east of town that could bring new industry.
