It was a wild weekend here. We got a sizeable ice storm in the early hours of Sunday, which has caused a lot of hassles for Winston-Salem. The Winston-Salem Journal reported that there were 100 roads blocked by downed trees yesterday, and there are […]
I don’t know if many of you have reason to go to the main wfu.edu page, but I was out there today and the story on the main page caught my eye. The main page photo is of the green, lush Amazonian forest, which is […]
