(2,927 posts)and I don't have TV and only pick up a weekly free paper every Wed. and they come out on Thurs. But The Bohemian does both local and national news.
Wonder what the floods were like 400 and 500 years ago when last they were this high. I hope they moved what they could to the second level in that Palace, I just love to see history. Or know it is around. Finding a Russian coin from 1831 was a High Point in my life, though arrow heads may be older.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
