The Easter Fire

The Easter Fire

I’m betting that most of you don’t know about the tradition of the Easter fire.  Well, you’re not alone.  There just happened to be a big ol’ fire just down the way from where Old Man Otis (OMO) lives, and he stopped by to capture a little bit of the drama.  The...

2010.  What a year.  It was a year where if you multiplied the last two numbers by two you would get the first two numbers.  I know.  I’m blowing your mind, but try to stick with me here.  Not only was there this weird math thing going on, we also had a lot going on in the world of...
