Updates from the Road: Weather = Cold, People = Warm

From Warpaint Pilot Susie Aikman:

TRT was driving on I-80 in NV when a vehicle pulled up beside us and I waved. They held up their Census form to the window for us to see.

Generally every day, we get at least one person chat with us in a parking lot at a hotel about the forms, a job, or what is Census. I even recruit from the hotel staff where I stay. Call the number, put in your zip and contact your local office.

We're in Ely, NV and we hear this is the coldest place in the US at times. Today is was bitter cold and blowing pellets of snow. The folks at the Shoshone Colony were warm and helpful. We toured their Ed. Admin building and newly organized library. If any one is interested in helping, send books and educational materials to the Ely Shoshone Reservation Library, Ely, NV.

Next up: We're here today (3/10/10) from 11-1 at the Duckwater Shoshone Tribal Health Center.
