What will this summer hold?
Another rotten year could be a death knell for some; cross your fingers and hang on for heavy weather.

Good question. Hopefully the result is a positive one, however we have many strikes against us. In the meantime I think supporting local businesses should be top on everyone's list. Not only does it help our local economy, but it seems to be more rewarding when the man or woman behind the counter or serving you knows you by name, your likes and dislikes, and the most likely reason your visiting. Best of luck to everyone for the summer season of 2009.
