\nPhotoshopped version of what 2010 might look like<\/i><\/center>
\nOne of the things that makes North Dakota, and Bismarck-Mandan in particular, feel so homey is the display of the Capitol building windows for certain holidays. There’s the Christmas tree currently on display, made with red and green window shades; the “4th” that appears on the front face of the building every Independence Day; and, of course, the numbers announcing the New Year. Those numbers will appear this week…but how will they look? It’s been nine years since we had a 1!<\/p>\n

There are four possibilities, given the rows of windows on the face of the capitol building. I don’t think either of the outside rows would look right, so I guess it’s a 50\/50 chance between the two center rows. Any guesses?<\/p>\n

I know the guy who does these displays (he has help, of course) and was tempted to call his cell phone and ask…but it’s more fun guessing, don’t you think?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
