Oh, he didn't get the job yet. But he will get A job. Several EMS stations have already told him they can't find enough qualified staff to fill all the openings. He's talked to Downeast, the station at Bangor and the primary state office. They all say the same thing....get your ass here and we'll put you to work.

Under Armour is awesome! Hey they even sell it out here in AZ 
Also I noticed that Target sells a similar, not quite as good, substitute- Champion long sleeve turtle-neck wear! A little more affordable

I am finding that a tractor with a front loader, really can change your attitude to snow.
It was the snow dump last April [pretty much similiar to this weekend's dump] that really caused me to focus on getting a tractor.

It sounds like El and fam are about ready to make their move. I was hoping you would move to Calais with us. As for the shortage of EMS personel, it's the same down here. The local service has been "borrowing" from other towns. Can't blame you for picking and choosing the one with the best offer, since DH has skills that are in demand.
