You'd be surprised at the political language coming out of the Republican majority in West Virginia (I grew up in West Virginia, and have bounced back and forth between there and Vermont over the years). The leadership in the House, Senate, and Administration is very pro-solar, pro-renewable, pro-all of the above. It turns out when multinationals say they won't locate factories, or offices, or data centers in your state unless they have access to renewables, that that leaves an impression. As a result over the last couple legislative sessions, several pro-renewables bills have become law. That said, you can't go attacking the heritage (which would be equivalent to attacking the maple and dairy industries in Vermont). But diversification is widely desired and supported.

The Orkin Man rocks! We noticed fleas and turned out mice were bringing them in. I signed a one year contract with Orkin but after 3 months, the mice and the fleas were gone. The first visit included an inspection that identified the entry points where mice were coming in.

The video does paint a different story.

It sounds more like a case of the prosecutor not wanting a conviction and doing nothing to pursue a conviction. They know who the defense will call but do nothing to get their own witness to disagree. They do t even call the guy who was tazed to the stand.

It is very clear they wanted the cop to get off because they need to work with them and we’re grudgingly prosecuting a case they had no interest in winning.

Try a flat, open field (though please, not a farmer’s field meant for plantings) or a well groomed trail. For a fee, there’s the Woodstock Country Club..tho that may be too far north for you. Ask around. Some town-maintained trails are available…though you may have company. Check w a CofC or tourism website.
