Roads were slippery and one Wirt state road dumptruck got caught in blowing snow and ended up on it’s side not too far down below the old Rader Hotel at Burning Springs. Damage was minimal.

Boris the head fellow in merry old England put a stop to all the COVId nonsense. Of course Dr. Fauci and his buddies are upset as they can see the “writing on the wall”, The gravy train is coming to an end and likely there will be serious criminal charges, even treason. One local gal who has a family medical issue and cannot take the vaccine tested ++++ the other morning but she is now on the mend. Monoclonal antibodies are now rare, thanks to the federal government as are the treatments that are used elsewhere in the world to save lives. Eco Health Alliance, which some say is CIA got $4.7 million to fund the germ warfare lab in Wuhan. Is anyone minding the store?
