The Calm Before The Storm
We’ll be back to buzzing around tomorrow. The break was great, and we loved the extra time with family, but we’re excited to jump back in and get back to keeping the hive in the know.
2026 is already shaping up to be a big year. More local stories. More great local businesses. More events worth putting on your calendar. And more insider access to things you’ll hear about here before just about anywhere else.
Tomorrow kicks off the first full work week of 2026, so this is effectively the calm before the storm. Take these last few hours to prepare, because when life gets going, it’s a whirlwind. Stay tuned. The buzz is getting louder, and you’re right at the center of it.
