Another Day in Northern Ohio..

• Just back from a New England vacation - yes we got trapped by the flooding. A beautiful area - not unlike the feel among our Lake Erie Islands. My wife and I noticed one major difference - and that was attitude. Everyone we talked to, and I like to talk, from business owners to residents were ambassadors for their region. They all loved to brag about where they lived. Northern Ohio has some fantastic assets - lets do some bragging!!
• I picked up a copy of EcoWatch Journal at Rio Coffee Brewery in Avon Lake (where I am at the moment-a regular stop) and they have an article on "Ohio's Growing Wind and Solar Supply Chain". A new study released by the Environmental Law and Policy Center finds that 106 Ohio companies are doing business with the wind industry, and 63 with he solar industry supply chains.
  
• We are having a condo open house on Middle Bass Island this Saturday from 1 pm to 3 pm. We'll have 4 to 5 waterfront condos open. See a variety of layouts and prices. Email me for info at leehisey@howardhanna.com. To preview the building check out: http://www.StHazardsCondos.com
