Wow! This last storm hit us hard.
A true story. I carpool from Loveland to Longmont every day. On the day of the storm, we added a extra passenger due to the fact that he drives a little California Honda foo-foo car that is way to low to the ground. So as we are let out early (because of the blizzard) the 3 of us decide to have a friendly wager. How many cars will we see stranded on the side of the road between Longmont and Loveland. We discussed it and each of us came up with out guess. 3, 5 (my guess) and 7. (Guy from California) So here we are trecking through the snow, moving at a snails pace, and we start counting. By the time we reach Loveland we counted 9 cars of the road. The friendly bet went to the Californian transplant. He obviously knew that there are a lot more people from out of state than I thought. All kidding aside, I am glad that we did not see any serious accidents.
Till next time,
Sam

We as a city, state and nation need to keep our eyes on the big picture. Sure the economy has tanked, were in a endless war, and gas prices are out of control, but we are America! This is the best country in the world. We as a nation can solve all of those problems and more. We need to come together and work towards solving some of our own problems. Give thanks to our country on this day, her birthday.
