Happy Friday, everyone!
Your friendly (and outgoing) editor (and founder) Matt Noonan is here to help us with a brand new Daily Noontime for Fri-Yay (Friday!) January 31st, 2020.
Yes, it is the final day of January, which means we are inching closer to longer days, better weather and most importantly … loads of fun in the sun!
Have a great weekend, enjoy the Super Bowl and we’ll talk to you next Monday!
