The economy picked up drastically over the last few days as metereologist once again predicted a winter wonderland filled with 5-7 inches of the fluffy white stuff.  Colonial and Sunbeam were the expected winners with Nature's Own running closely in third place.  Mayfield Dairies had a whopping increase in sales reported.  The little ones were sorely disappointed in the texture of the white blanket covering the area as the ice was cold wet and would not mold itself into a snow man no matter what tricks were used.
