Road & Weather Advisory...
There is a motor vehicle accident near milepost 36 on State Route 83... there is some lane blockage... careful driving in that area...(4:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb 11 time-frame)
The weather in the Sonoita area is not the best... we're vacilating between sleet and freezing rain... The pass on State Route 83 is cloud covered and probably icy. Please be careful while driving today.
Our Home-school Co-op visited the station for a Tour this week... we had a great time showing them around. 🙂
While looking through our collection of newspaper articles for a particular article on the Firewise program, I found this article on Harold Hager...
