Summer’s inching ever closer, like it or not! With everything going on in the world right now, how will your summer plans be affected? Perhaps you’re happy just to hunker down, pick out a good book, find a comfy chair in a shady spot and sip on a cool drink? Even in the calmest of circumstances, that sounds good to me!

Don’t Forget!

Be well and please stay safe. See you back here next Friday.
