The folks that run the businesses on the island are ready for a busy year, knowing people are ready to get out and have some fun after all the lockdowns.
We are unfortunately seeing another surge here in Michigan, we’re number one in the U.S. for Covid-19 infections right now. The big difference we’re seeing from the other surges we’ve seen, is the age group being affected. It’s not people over 65, it’s mostly younger people being infected right now with a very aggressive strain of Covid-19. With adults age 16 and older now open for vaccination, MSU is being very aggressive in getting their students vaccinated. They have sent emails to students with all the information they need to get vaccinated and where. Many have expressed excitement to get the shot. In a recent MSU survey 80% of MSU students want to get the vaccine.
STOP! Major Driving Distractions We Need To Avoid

I was planning on getting a little lunch, I started noticing a lot of distracted driving, which I admit I have foolishly done myself.
I saw a young lady at the light next to me texting, unaware the light was green. I saw an elderly lady a few minutes later with an ice cream cone in her hand, as she was reaching for her cell phone.

This is going to be a weird season for all sports teams out there with the new restrictions due to COVID-19. With fewer people in the stands, will the roar of the crowd ever feel the same as it has in past years?
Probably not exactly the same, but that roar was heard loud and proud by Tigers fans on Sunday when the Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo hit a homer after his first pitch in an MLB game.
Baddoo told the press and fans that he was just grateful to be able to hit in front of his friends and family.
