“In our nation’s 246-year historical past, there has by no means been a person who’s a higher risk to our republic than Donald Trump.

About three weeks after a landslide prompted officials to close a major highway near Grand Teton National Park, a detour has opened to public traffic, according to the Wyoming Department of Transportation.
In early June, a crack developed in Wyoming Highway 22 at the Teton Pass and officials closed the road for patch work. It reopened to traffic but just two days later the road collapsed.
A paved, two-lane detour opened Friday with traffic limited to vehicles under 60,000 pounds gross vehicle weight.

“(Department) professional geologists have evaluated the stability of the detour roadway. Geotechnical analysis confirms that the temporary detour meets or exceeds minimum requirements as outlined in guidance from the Federal Highway Administration,” the transportation department said in a news release.
The Teton Pass corridor “serves as a critical commuter route and facilitates the transport of goods and services that are lifelines to the growing regional economies in Wyoming and Idaho,” according to the US Department of Transportation.
According to a graphic on the Facebook page of the Teton County office of the transportation department, the detour was built just inside the section of Highway 22 that collapsed.
The new road is about 600 feet long and has a sharper curvature than the highway section that collapsed. New drainage was added.

SHERIDAN — A four-year-old Sheridan, Wyoming girl is now able to move and speak after falling out of a two-story window earlier this month, landing her in a nine-day coma.
Serafina Blue Day, also known as Fifi, was life-flighted to a Denver hospital after she fell out of a two-story window and landed head-first on below on the concrete on June 10. She was playing at a friend’s house jumping on a bed near the window when she fell through the screen. This resulted in multiple injuries, including a traumatic brain injury.

Fifi made progress on June 20 when she came out of her coma and was able to squeeze her mom’s hand and move slightly. But last week, she made even more progress as she can talk and move most of her limbs.
“The fact that she can talk and hear and see and move is a miracle in itself,” said Harbour.
Her mother has been by Blue Day’s side the throughout the whole process and said she is recovering acceleratedly.
“According to the doctors, when they’ve seen kids with her injury, some of them don’t wake up, and the ones that do take weeks and some of them don’t speak, some of them can’t move. Whereas she was kind of like a miracle. Cognitively, she understands everything,” said Harbour.
She has now been out of the ICU for a week, but recovery could take anywhere from six months to a year. It is uncertain whether or not some of her injuries will be life-long. Harbour is just grateful her daughter is progressing well.

“That was really an emotional, amazing experience because I didn’t know if she ever would. I was prepared for that to be goodbye,” said Harbour. “I got to see her open her eyes and in this hospital, I’ve seen so many parents that don’t get that.”
While the road to recovery is long with an injured femur and neck and will have to relearn some motor functions, there have been glimpses of hope that she may one day be able to dance again.
“I feel like it’s totally possible that her whole personality will come back. Before the accident, she was a performer. She loved to dance and to sing and to play and be funny. And I’m not ready to accept that that’s gone yet,” said Harbour.
