Here's today's report from Kerrie Supanich at West Wendover city
offices. I'm pleased that she's trying to be so helpful. Again -
consider that she's not a racer, so her reports might not be exactly
what we need to know. But she's sure trying hard. Maybe I'll stop in
the city offices next time I'm out there and say hi on behalf of us.
