Winds of Change.
 From the Publisher:
Well, the winds of change have arrived here over the past couple of weeks and we have seen some volatile weather. I'm a big fan of exiting off an interstate if the weather is too rough. Take a lunch break or extended mall walk. And if the hours of travel ahead appear to include rough weather, why risk it? Make an early stop in a hotel and discover something new!
Transportation Question - Do you or someone you know utilize an auto transport service? Or a pet transport service? There have been numerous businesses contact me over the past couple of years and I'm curious to know how much demand there is for transport services. If you have used one for either your vehicle or your pet, will you email me your thoughts? Email: publisher@snowbirdsgulfcoast.com
for possible inclusion in an upcoming story.
