Back from WGDR & Listening In

Had left here around 8PM [ET] for the WGDR 91.1 FM radio studio in Plainfield (VT) and was on with Joseph Gainza from 9PM to 11PM cutting in with breaks from the national feed during the long programs in order to provide a local perspective. Dana ended up volunteering to stay at the station all night and keep the national broadcast on air from 11PM to 6AM, although they may cut in here and there with songs and local perspective from time to time. Thus I decided to take a ride home at 11PM instead of staying, particularly since I pulled an all night Tuesday evening and only got five hours sleep Wednesday and am not as well rested as a result. Thank you to Joseph, station manager Greg  Hooker the everyone else at WGDR as well as the listening audience for participating.
