A busy upcoming two weeks as I head out-of-town. Just in time for all the snow to melt here in Chicago. I’m looking forward to spending time with family for a mini warm getaway. Some more serious news coming from my hometown as there was one fatality involving a man lift and another elevator accident on a local college campus. I’ll cover those on the show today. Next week we may not have a show; it all depends on how everything falls into place when I get back. I’ll post something next Wednesday either way. Thanks for tuning into today everyone enjoy the program.
