*** UPDATED x1 *** Caption contest!
Wednesday, Sep 27, 2017 - Posted by Rich Miller * I’m not sure if “Scott” is Rep. Drury and someone else wrote this tweet or if Scott is the name of the tour guide other than Rep. Drury, or what. But have at it…
*** UPDATE *** As you can see, he or his campaign deleted the tweet, but somebody I know saved the photo…  Carry on.
