I posted this back in December, but now that we are all ready for Spring, remember to mark your calendars.

The Thunderbirds (U.S. Air Force Demonstration Squadron) will perform at the grand opening weekend (May 9 and 10) of the Branson Airport, which is the first privately financed and operated commercial service airport in the United States. Plan ahead...tickets are available on-line at www.bransonairshow.com

Tonight marks the reopening of the downtown Springfield restaurant. Riad's will boast a new look and lower prices, 20 to 30 percent on lunches and dinners. Owner Riad Matar considered closing shop, but is passionate about keeping downtown Springfield vital, so after investing over $60,000 he is hopeful for the future.

Come show your support, and try some delicious Mediterranean fare.
