Oh, baby, am I sick. On Monday I was driving to pick up some Knit Out friends who were in town so we could have breakfast before their respective flights. I had Max with me because we had no school on Monday. Just as we pulled off the highway, Max informed me he was about…

Can YOU Feel It?
I’ve never Caucused, but tonight we’re off to Ramsey Jr. High, to stand in a room with other citizens, and make democracy work! To say that Gerry and I are excited is an understatement.
