Being here only a short time, I have noticed an increase in traffic when travelling about. The restaurants seem more full, and crowding in general, seems to be on the uptick.

I love when there are a lot of of people in restaurants, that pump money into our economy. I would plan accordingly, if one wants to go to a restaurant, and be seated in a short time span. Eating at home is another option, if one doesn't want to deal with crowds.

To me. it's a matter of tolerance. Those of us that come from big cities are use to crowds and expect wait times at restaurants and shopping.You go with the flow. For those that have moved here from small towns, and expect to be able to go about their business, as if they are the only one's that count, is unrealistic.

My doctor leaves a couple of appt's open for emergencies, as opposed to going to urgent care, is one solution that needs to be explored. One must find a doctor who's policy is to get patients in on an emegency basis, if at all possible. It's difficult, but it can be done.

It's a matter of tolerance and perception. Those of us who have come from big citites are more tolerant of wait times, as patience is the key. Those who love the small town feel, will grow more disenchanted, in the size TV, will grow to. Only Mr. Morse knows when build out will end. As gets bigger, the corresponding changes that need to be made of terms of stores and shopping will be addressed by Mr. Morse. He has done a wonderful job and I will be always amazed at his vision, and acumen for getting things that need to be done, in a timely fashion.

Patience, grasshopper.
