Oak Ridge Today has taken few days off for brief vacation

West Yellowstone June 24 2017

Oak Ridge Today has taken a few days off in order to attend a family reunion, and for the most part, we haven’t been able to post stories for the past few days.

We resume our regular posting today (Monday, June 26).

The family reunion was in West Yellowstone, Montana.

It’s the first vacation we’ve had since we started more than five years ago.

We will try to provide more information later. Thank you for your support and for reading Oak Ridge Today.
