Now that I'm in a state that has some hope I did something that shocked even me..haha. I registered to vote. While going in to buy some fishing gear (I'm fishing Indian territory next week) I was approached in front of the store. I haven't been registered to vote for well over a decade...actually about two decades. Living in California it was a waste of time and the only purpose it served (the system) was to get me into jury duty more often. The two elderly gentlemen working the table asked people walking in behind me if they registered to vote. Two beautiful blondes said, "Yep! Let's go Brandon." on their way in. I actually almost got teary-eyed over filling out that form. Republican. Registering for anything else (other than the Demons) is like ordering a burger and not being able to eat it. Big day...I still have some hope, I guess. Pretty much in the Gulch, though. The two gentlemen asked where I moved from and we had a nice conversation. They got it. Everybody I know here does. I said, "If this place goes the way of California my next stop is Wyoming. After that - probably Panama." They seemed to totally understand...

Cheers everybody...
