Hurray! A Long Weekend!

Friday, August 29, 2008

Well, I'm lovin' the forecast for this one! Sunny throughout until Tuesday with temps in the high 20's. What more could we ask for. I hear from some reports, the traffic was super heavy even on Thursday. It looks like a five dayer for some folks. Anyway, have a super long weekend and drive defensively.

Remember to vote big time and encourage your friends to do the same on Monday for Drew Wright. When I was on remote location at Rona on Thursday, collecting eleventh hour ballots for our Summer Renovation Madness contest, several people came up to me to talk about supporting Drew's efforts on Canadian Idol. His former employer, Dean reflected on Drew as a painter for him. Dean plans to attend the show in TO on Monday. And another listener mentioned to me that she was in the same high school class as judge Jake Gold. Small world isn't it. GOOD LUCK DREW!

And don't forget to join me Tuesday after the 8:30 news as Rona store manager Steve Martin joins me in the studio to draw the winning ballot for the Summer Renovation Contest. Good luck to all.
