Cornwall ON – Wow! That first decade of the new millennium went really fast!
We’re about to bring in 2011 and it’s coming in with lots of rain, in January, in The Great White North.
Of course Climate change is a myth. Not! I can’t remember a winter in this area having 7 degree temperatures and rain this time of the year?? Can you?
So was 2010 good to you? It was to us in many ways. As a small business just surviving is a good thing. We’ve grown and prospered ahead of schedule.
Things can be better, but I feel so grateful to all of our viewers and all of our sponsors. Thank you for giving me and everyone at The Cornwall Free News and Seawayradio.com the opportunity to serve you.
So I’m going through some of the highlights from our pages over the last year and am going to print links to some of the stories that you viewed here in 2010!
