Stimulating economic growth requires accessibility to quality homes that families can afford. By investing in housing for local workforces, communities across #Appalachia can incentivize business development & enhance local tax bases. cc: @riseerwin https://t.co/cV8wx4ZWna

[The Elephant Sanctuary @ElephantsTN]

At The Sanctuary, elephants have acres of room to roam. Nosey often travels from the farthest point on one side of her habitat to the farthest point of another, grazing along the way! (She is coated in coconut oil, which we use to moisturize the elephants’ skin.)

Think about it: today's new local cases didn't know they had it a few days ago, but they did. So while I feel great now, I'm taking advice, assuming I have it & acting accordingly. I can't work @ home, so I'm extra cautious on the job. I want to be part of the solution.
