Ouray’s County Clerk says thank you to everyone who is working to get ready for the upcoming election.
“We want cupcakes!” my children chirp as they bound into the kitchen, breathless with anticipation. Welcome to instant-gratification nation.
In which the word “apprentice” sends the author down a career path, and into the arms of love.
