friends hey there.
Don't blame me for being a little fuzzy on the details from that last chapter.
Stevonna and her friends on the city council had to clean things up after the previous regime let the cannabis industry run roughshod all over town.
And it seemed like every time they looked under a rock, they learned about just how crazy things had gotten under the watch of Mayor Kerr Bug and Jermaine tech bros.
A russian oligarch, not to mention a big old budget deficit.
But I think Stefana might have learned that it's real hard to run a town like Adelanto without getting a little dirt on you.
Whether you mean to or not.
It'S.
Not a good night for the Saints, Atalanto's high school football team.
Atalanto comes into the game at one seven.
Overall, they are zero two and lead.
The Atalanto cheerleaders and marching Bandaid are doing their best to stoke some school spirit.
But it's cold and windy and the Saints are struggling.
The Saints are playing their rival Silverado high from the neighboring town of Victorville.
Tonight, the rivalry between these two high desert cities is playing out on the football field, and like so often happens when they face off, Adelanto is losing.
It's tough being a Saints fan.
The team has historically not been very good.
They weren't a good team.
I think before I even got there, it was only like three wins out.
