Over the past few weeks, I have had a number of conversations about State Question 844. Almost every one quickly turned to school funding. That concern is understandable. SQ 844 raises real questions about funding for schools and local governments.

There were four of them that day, sisters named Lora, Cora, Dora and Ruth, and my dad went too. I loaded them all up in my motorhome and we headed East toward what had been home at one time for them. They did not know how to get down there any more but I did, so away we went to Kennedy, Oklahoma.
