CROSSOVER INSIDER – Tyler Returns! New Releases (Movie & Gaming) in Marathon AND Manitouwadge
TYLER TALKS
Residents of Northwestern Ontario need not feel alone. The lack of sunlight and flat out lack of summer that we’ve experienced this year is also being experienced in other parts of our country as well. I just returned home from my vacation in Southern Manitoba and the typical temperatures of 30 degrees that we normally experience while visiting, were replaced with cool, cloudy and rainy weather. Nevertheless, the vacation was well worth it. Being able to see and visit with family is what makes it all worthwhile. But now I’m back and that means back to work.
