This past week I was decluttering in my basement and found a battery operated am/fm radio and wavered as to whether I should keep it or give it away. I decided to keep it just in case. I live in a narrow valley where we don’t get much for radio and no tv through the air. But, I could pick up am radio if something big went down.

We rarely get earthquakes that we can feel. We don’t get hurricanes or tornadoes. We get snow. I have a foot of it in the yard at the moment with more coming tonight.
