the following is a double Ugo eight editorial Speaking on behalf of the editorial board is W G L President and general manager Kyle Grimes. Over the last 10 weeks, the days have all started to blend together. It makes it pretty easy to lose track of time. So believe it or not, it's Memorial Day weekend, a day where we stop and pay tribute to those who lost their lives serving our country. It also marks the unofficial start to summer. Obviously, that's complicated. This year in our area, some counties air still in the red phase, while others have moved to yellow, know which one you're in and follow the state's guidance closely. A second wave of the virus, as many are predicting, would have an even more devastating effect on our small businesses are larger economy and our collective psyche.
