A Brief Note from Doug Draper
Here is wishing to all of our readers and everyone else who has visited and supported Niagara At Large as a truly independent online news and commentary site a warm and peaceful time during this Holiday Season, and peace in the New Year.

The Holiday Season can be a happy, magical time for many of us. But please remember it can be a lonely and sad time for people too, for any one or more reasons that have to to do with everything from the loss of a loved one to worry over where the next money will come for essentials like food and home heating.
In the spirit of the season, let’s all do our best to reach out to those in need.
I also cannot help but send out a reminder to shop local – that means spending your dollars in locally owned, independent stores whenever you can – and to do what you can to support public transit, and to protect and preserve the natural resources on this only planet in the universe we have to sustain our lives and those of all other creatures, big and small.
NAL will remain in a relatively dormant state during the holiday season and will get back to our mission, in a full, spirited way this coming January.
(NAL invites you to share your vews on this post in the comment area below. Remember that we only post comments by readers who share their real first and last name.)

I know quite a few people who had a rough year in 2014 so I hope 2015 will bring happiness & peace to all.

That Gazebo is a treasure, left behind by a movie company that did a movie in NOTL back in the 1970s, my wife and I, always headed for that tiny parklet when visiting the Olde Towne of NOTL. A happy Christmas to Doug Draper, a caring fellow who want’s a safer and cleaner environment for the PEOPLE !!!
