Getting back in the groove

Can you believe the holidays are over? This is the time of year when retailers take a deep breath and sit back (but just for a few minutes) and then they are OFF again. It's the time to sit down and really plan things out for the upcoming year. Many of my friends accross the country just got home from Atlanta where they shopped for the items customers will be buying next Christmas! Yeah, I know....but it's the nature of the beast. You have to stay one step ahead. It's one of the things that's the hardest to get used to for me. You are always in another season in your head. 

But what about Rocky Hill & Northshore? Looks like we are all staying busy! If you drive around here, you don't see the "For Rent" signs up in vacant store windows that you are seeing in other places around the city, state, or even country. We seem to be pretty lucky. I hope it stays that way. Please remember to Shop Local. So much depends on it. 

I'm going to start spotlighting the businesses in Rocky Hill & Northshore Drive once a week. So, check back often. You may learn something you didn't know. If you know of, or own, a business you would like for me to spotlight, please send me an email, or comment on the blog and I will get them on here!!

Remember...If you don't live or shop here...you will.
