We are nearing the end of a year that will no doubt live in infamy and not for good reasons. However, it is because of this year that many of us have been forced to take pause, do some deep reflection and realize what is truly important in our lives.

What does it mean to be thankful? It’s no doubt that 2020 has left all of us with little to be thankful for…..or has it? With all the trials and tribulations and curve balls thrown at us this year, we can’t help but be thankful for the incredible drive and determination in our industry.

As I sit here writing this, my doors are open for the first time since April. I almost can’t even remember what a cool breeze feels like. I am enjoying a hot cup of coffee instead of an iced one and tonight I will forego the cold beer for a glass of red wine. I made it through another summer!
