Local Goodness

Disclaimer: It's been a really busy day today, so I am not spending  the time on this post I should.

I went to my local butcher today as I am making food for my dog and needed to get dog bones and stuff and was sad to hear that even they have noticed a drop in customers. It's a great local business - Taylor’s Country Meadow Meats - and they have local grain raised beef and carry Grassroots products and Meridith's Elixers and all kinds of great stuff for reasonable prices, so here's my plug if you are a carnivore and eat meat please consider buying form one of the butchers that raise and get their product locally. It will be better tasting and surprisingly I often pay LESS (yes I said less) than at the no frills.

The other shout out I want to give is to a fellow blogger - Richard (check out his blog here) who since my start in the world of blogging this week has been wonderfully supportive and has put me onto the wonderful work of Tracy at Mr. Inkbee in trying to clean up 1st Ave. East - like and come down to help on the 22nd!


I wasn't going to post today due to lack of time, but I have talked to so many wonderful people today who are really trying to make a difference that I had to say something. This lovely area is physically beautiful and filled with so many wonderful and talented people that even though I see issues and problems all around - I also can envision all of us banding together and truly making this community of ours an even more wonderful place.


So thanks to all of you out there who have made me smile in the past few days and shown so much support and shared so much wisdom.
