As I said yesterday, for the four years I was a federal employee in the Bush administration, we never had a day where the government was closed for bad weather.
Tomorrow will make the 5th day in a month… 4th in a row.
It was hellish out there today. Nearly two feet of snow, and now it’s [...]
It’s shortly after 2pm. It’s been snowing for 27 hours straight. We have, probably, six hours to go. We’ve gotten over 30 inches of snow. And Gail and TJ have done a great job keeping the porch, driveway, sidewalk and doggie poop corral clear.
It is to them and their pioneer spirit that this film is [...]
