We should all pay attention to what is happening at the National Archives On Friday night, the president officially fired the Archivist of the United States, as he had promised to do before taking office. So, hi there! 👋 Former National Archives employee here.

Hello! I don't quite get Blue Sky yet. It seems like people are using to share opinions more than personal news. Let's see what happens. Please add photos of cakes and mystery bear products that arrive in the mail to make this a more chatty environment.

Fun shopping at Hilltop Gallery in Branford.
1) I love these Scandinavian modern speakers. At $45 apiece, they may not work, but I got them for end tables. Bob will test them for me.
