Truth. What is truth anymore? Is it what we see on TV? Is it what we read online? Is it the words printed in the newspaper?

Honestly, how many of us had ever heard the term “originalists” until this past week? I’ll answer honestly, I hadn’t. I’d heard Federalist before, but originalists was a new one.

They did a fantastic job of routing out domestic terrorist in time to stop what could… Continue reading Where is the Condemnation?

Due to Covid, tonight marks the end of our marching band season. It has been short, but enjoyable. There were a few invitationals and some Thursday night play-throughs.
