It’s hard to believe it’s been almost two years since the Barack Obama administration came to an end. We’re not here to play politics, but we do think government is super fascinating. That’s what we’re excited to hear from Barack’s right-hand man, Joe Biden, when he visits Missoula in December! Yep, ol’ Joe will bring […]
