- AROUND TOWN -

Last week ended covered in what would be a beautiful winter scene in December. While people still admitted it was beautiful, they were also relieved when it melted off by afternoon. Sunday repeated the same trend just on a slightly warmer level.

The MPS Positivity Project has continued to spread joy in their own unique ways and to meet online, as is the current way of life. Best of all, they're not the only ones!

Also spreading joy... flamingos have been popping up at homes and businesses, and then sometimes moving on to other things... More flamingos and sunny photos to come. We'll be spending the rest of the afternoon soaking it in!
