Weekend Happenings

Farmers Markets and Cardboard Boats

WHAT'S UP FIVE-EIGHTY FRIEND!

Good morning, and happy Friday!

I apologize for the silence the last few days. We have been moving out of our house and I went on a much needed camping trip in the midst of packing and moving. Mixing those late nights moving and long drives, I didn’t have the time to write the newsletter.

With that being said, there isn’t too much going on this weekend, but let’s see what is!
