(11,911 posts)We do that yearly, sometimes 2x a year. No way do I want to see any of that beauty destroyed. With the majority repub government, the people of NC have enough of an uphill battle to fight, even though some don't see it that way.

There is no doubt he has his greedy little claws so deep in this mess, we can only hope, he is destined to die of petroleum poisoning.
Thanks for your post.
