Niagara At Large Gears Down Until June

A Note from Niagara At Large publisher Doug Draper

It has been a long, cold winter coming into a spring that has yet to warm up, and my fingers are getting a little sore from all of this tapping.

So dear Niagara At Large readers, it is time to take a few nice, long walks on the beach to both rest the mind and those sore fingers, and to put all of the craziness that makes up too much of the news we are bombarded with into perspective.

All of this is a way of saying that this site will slow down over the last couple of weeks of May before firing up again this coming June with what I want to be a more daring and edgier version of NAL.

I want to stress that I won’t be away from NAL completely since I will have my laptop nearby, although it won’t be possible to do any writing while I’m driving along the Massachusetts Turnpike. So I ask you for a little patience around posting any comments that come in or getting anything else on during one of the few mellow periods I need to embrace during the year.

In the meantime, I thank the many thousands of people from this region and from places around the world that visit this site each week and look forward to ramping things up in the weeks ahead. You, in your own way, have made it clear through your support that this region and others need some alternative voices to the corporate news being shoved up our nose by Quebecor, Metroland and other fakers.
