Canceling of show so disappointing

I want to say thank you to our newspaper carrier who managed to deliver the Times and Herald every day during this snow storm. Another big thank you to the U.S. Postal Service carrier who delivered the mail every day. Also thanks to the Snohomish County PUD for restoring our power multiple times during the storm.

Boo to Northshore School District for shutting down the NPAC theater at Bothell for Saturday’s sold out show of “Late Night Catechism.” We all needed a laugh and they killed it. The reason was lack of power but my family member who lives by the school was the only one that had power during this storm. The cost to the arts foundation is going to be huge. So sorry NSD, don’t ask for my vote in the future.
