Hello Gail
Checking in for Dec 2013. Still very little activity for Washington
County. In fact, my only activity comes from md Monk who was the former
Washington County administrator. There's overlap with Yuma County.
Thanks md for giving me something to do during the month.
Oh, one thing: I'm picking up more searches from FreeFind. I hope they
find what they are looking for.

Still ticking along.
