Thanksgoes out to Thor Milton for letting us know that it is infact a “1940 Bantam Coupe.” We’re pretty sure that itdoesn’t fly and isn’t at all bulletproof. The colour aloneshould have given it away.A Musical Addition to The Good Bread Company - See Page 22The restored and renovated upstairs of The GoodBread Company is now hosting monthly musicalevenings. Richard’s Hall will be filled with a varietyto please everyone – from Dixieland to Handel’sMessiah. Just one more reason to make Vittoriaa regular destination. Artisan breads, NorfolkCounty bounty, and now evenings out.Earn Spending Money when you Stay inSarnia-LambtonFrom now through the end of the year, if you staytwo or more nights at participating Sarnia-Lambtonhotels and campgrounds you can receive up to $100in vouchers to spend at local restaurants, attaractionsor retail stores. For more details see Tourism Sarnia-Lambton’s ad on page 1 (the bottom of our front cover).Pine Dale - Grand BendMuseums are finally open - see page 37Not all museums are fully open as of now, although many are ready to educateand entertain. Book yourself an appointment at one and allow yourself time towander their grounds. Archives are also open in areasby appointment for those genealogists out there. PaintOntario, which had to be cancelled in the spring, hasbeen rescheduled from Sept. 2-27 at the LambtonHeritage Museum in Grand Bend. Your entrancefee and booking time includes seeing the works ofart and access to the rest of the museum.Ontariariario MadeIt was refreshing to see the Ontario Government takea stand and ask Ontarians to check the packaging onpurchases to see where they’re made, and buy Ontariomade products when they can. It’s the simplest thingto do. We’re not sure why this took so long. Watchfor this logo to start appearing on products. The shopsin this magazine carry countless locally made items,so please keep that in mind when doing your earlyChristmas shopping. Shop locally please!It’s been a challenge, but we did it!For years, we’ve been accustomed to running out ofDaytrippers, even in the summer when we print twiceas many. It’s our goal to distribute almost every copy(we need to keep a few for our records of course). Sothis summer was a challenge, with no events, hardly anytravel centres and restaurants under heavy restrictions.These types of venues go through a lot of magazines. Wetook the opportunity to add countless more locations,particularly grocery stores, in the hopes of gettingDaytripping into the hands of people who haven’t seenit. Farm markets were also so popular this summer thatwe had to restock them again and again. My thanksgo out to all of those who welcomed Daytripping andhelped us once again distribute every copy.Alien Invasion Cancels All Events Worldwide! - See page 38Our events list in the fall issue would normally take up five fullpages. It was a stretch to make it a half page this year becausewe’ve had to assume that everything has been cancelled, and startfrom scratch. There’s a legendary antique show in Aberfoyle onSeptember 19th, and the Petrolia Discovery will be open to hostan Artists Day on September 26th. A few Christmas Open Houseshave begun to trickle in. If you work with a non-profit group orare one of our customers, please send us your November throughFebruary events by mid October and help us help you promotethem in our next issue.
