Paul. Here's a portion of Jonathan V last production titled Saint Paul documentary. St. Paul Minnesota is a nice city to live in I like Saint Paul a lot. I like Webster School where I go to school. I like little park and Como Zoo. I also like all my good friends since a talk. When I go to Como Zoo I try to do everything there is to do I always go on the right and sometimes see the animals and the flowers or get a 40 ride or go on the water bikes on the lake. I run all over the park with my family and we have a good time in the winter. I go there to Sly and toboggan and to skate on the Lake St. Paul is a part of a larger area called with Twin Cities Minneapolis is another city right next to sink. Hubert Humphrey Regina McCarthy and Walter Mondale. All Minnesota politicians who worked in the Twin Cities and myself interesting sites along the river and got to see how the old Paddlewheel boat look and how it works. The horned animal is very large. The state capital is in St. Paul and the Capitol building is amazing and it has gold horses and Riders on the front of it where your pie George Latimer is the mayor of st. Paul. I asked about the city. This is what he said. How do you like being a mayor of st. Paul? I like it very much. It is very educational everyday. I learned something more about the city. I didn't know before it involves contact with a lot of people and I enjoy that is crime any better in the city of st. Paul comparatively with other cities of our size are crime problem is not as great as most of the other large cities, but that's not much consolation to people in the city who suffer from the crime, but to them it it's are a very big thing and it should be have you heard from the roaches in the city about how you're doing to know how you're doing in the minds of the voter. That's why I elections are a lot of fun. Are you try to get out into the community into the neighborhood? And people come to you and they say things I don't like about what you're doing and by and large people have treated me very well. They've been very kind and very understanding I think people are that way toward a new mayor. Anyway, I think they tend to feel well, let's give him a chance and see if he can do a better job is 291,000 Minnesota is Bailey a family and iron ore producing states to good places to go in st. Paul are Gibbs farm farm and the University of Minnesota experimental Farm. Both of these are farms, but gives Farm is very old and shows how people live when they first came to Minnesota and the university Farm is very modern children who want to be farmers can learn about work by going there for a tour. Laura Wrigley and here's an excerpt from their piece call Dolores era show. And Charmaine Robinson assistant principal. Mr. How did you get interested in being a principal? Why you think that anyone who is toss and his kind of aggressive would want to be a principal that wasn't the way I became one. I was working in a district office as a supervisor and I have gotten into this position when I was quite young and suddenly one day. I'd been there 9 years and I thought my gosh. What am I going to do the rest of my career? I'll be twenty years. I can't be in this job 21 years. So I talked it over with my boss. He said that they could really enjoy going back out on the schools. And I said the fact you said you probably won't be doing anything unless you do. So I said, okay. I want to go out to schools and be a principal. So I went first to Drew school. I was there for nine years. And then I was transferred over to Webster 6 years ago. So this is my sixth year here and it's a lot more fun than being in the district office being with kids.
