Most of us will be taking vacations during the "Frog Days Of Summer", and when it's only few days away, you want to make sure that you're good to go. I'll be going on vacation later this summer, so other than packing, getting
Now that we're well into the "Frog Days Of Summer", you'll probably see signs up all over your neighborhood each weekend for garage sales.

The "Frog Days Of Summer" are filled with fun events, and here's one where the kids can participate...sidewalk art.
One of the biggest events of the "Frog Days Of Summer" is almost here... the Boilermaker Road Race. Those of you who are planning to run in Sunday's race may want to take advantage of this free service offered by Sitrin.
There's plenty going on this week during the "Frog Days Of Summer", including the Boilermaker Road Race this Sunday. So, tonight's Saranac Thursday in the F.X.
