Keep Calm and Think Spring

“Extreme Winter Conditions Are Not Easy On The Pocketbook!” 
By: Mindy Brock

For most of the us this has been a rough and cold winter; that has its pros and cons. Extreme weather conditions mean more costs to businesses, governments, schools and residents. There?s overtime, busted pipes, property damage, school and business closings to consider, which was doubled this year because of the shortage of salt in many cities, etc. The pros for a tough winter are that colder temperatures kill off many germs and the spread of common viruses such as the flu. Also, we see less unwanted insects and rodents. The weather did, thankfully, add more overtime hours and new jobs for city workers, construction workers and anyone with a snow shovel on their truck!

The turn of the season means warmer weather, longer days, higher spirits, and more people looking for work. With spring right around the corner let?s not wish this time away; let?s make the most of it. Think Spring. This is our motto for the next month while we wait patiently for the season of warmer weather and watch rebirth happen everywhere. Let?s embrace new growth and think outside of the box for new possibilities and opportunities as we reflect upon and casually tell winter goodbye.
