I check in a couple of times a day to monitor the goofy drama of politics and make sure there isn’t something I need to know, like a hurricane, landslides, eruptions or some financial calimity about to strike. “Did we declare war on anyone today?” This is always…
Plans have a way of changing, it turns out our 2003 Chevy Blazer will probably not haul thousands of pounds for hundreds of miles.
