In spite of the weather this week, the flu season is here! You can get your shot today at the Recplex in Wasaga Beach until 4 O'clock this afternoon. An ounce of prevention as they say. Listen to my Morning Flight over the next few weeks and I'll keep you posted on the dates of those coming up.
And you have to know, Old Man Winter is knocking on the back door, so I've decided to include some tips here from the OPP. It's good advise!...
