Today, we’re posting our final articles for 2023 as we begin our annual end-of-year holiday.

We’re putting down the phones and shutting down the laptops for a few days, as we do every year at this time. We will begin reporting news again on Jan. 3.

On behalf of Avery and Carol, I’d like to wish all our readers and customers a safe and relaxing holiday. We also wish you all the best for 2024.
