Suggestion Box: Free Flick. Wild Rice, Touching Tunes, Curiosity And Here Comes Countryside

Kaitlyn Zittel will be performing at Newaygo Brewing Co Saturday afternoon 12-4pm

There are a few things going on here and there but the finest of these right now is the weather and though we are staring at the possibility of a bit of snow this weekend and cooler temps, the very back of winter has been broken as has the ice on area lakes so get thee outside for a little hike and de-cocoon a bit.
Have some lunch at one of our fine local eatatoriums, browse through a few local shops, and cruise the county  pausing to ponder the huge difference in gas prices between Newaygo and Fremont.
(Overheard citizen: “Seriously? Over 30-40 cents a gallon some days. It’s like they were selected as a test town  for the proposed gas tax increase.”).

Whatever you do get out and shake off a little winter.

Here’s a few ideas.
