Wow! Talk about crazy weather! Despite the 60+ degree temperature changes and snow, rain and sleet, we all seem to be managing and getting along. Even on these bitterly cold days we have had a good-sized group of folks coming in for lunch. The smart ones call the Arrowhead Transit bus for a nice warm ride here and back.
