23.5 degrees is the angle of tilt our beautiful, blue planet has in relation to our celestial star. This oblique angle enables our seasons to ebb and flow with precise regularity as we orbit around the Sun at an amazing 67,000 mph.

Craig is often pegged as a place that’s behind the times. We have poor cell service, no gas station, and most of our streets are dirt. Admittedly, Craig can be a little slow and relaxed compared to other parts of the country. This is part of the town’s charm for many of our frequent visitors,.. read more →
