Our Family Farm donated the Capitol Christmas Tree to Harrisburg in 1996, when Tom Ridge was Governor. There was a big ceremony as we hand-dug, drum-laced and transported the 24ft Doug Fir, tarped, in a State Police escorted convoy to the Capitol, and installed it.
Tom and Michelle, plus all the State Legislators had us into the Exec Mansion Dining Room for dinner, after we’d cleaned-up and changed, at our motels.
I paid our way and refused all PA Taxpayers’ monies for expenses.
You should run for office. State, local, whatever.
