Release Date: Aug 17, 2011 Author or Contact: Sarah Hurst
You've all heard the joke about how a duck looks so placid and calm atop the water but under the water's surface his feet are paddling as hard as they can.

An Ice Scraping Texan
Release Date: Mar 7, 2011 Author or Contact: Sarah Hurst Category: President's Corner Subcategory: President's Corner
Recently someone gave me an ice scraper.
