Hey Evelyn! I found your list of local opportunities very interesting. The first issue of the Army veteran with anterograde amnesia made me think of the movie 50 First Dates.

If you want to check out my post here’s the link! http://charlysbizblog.blogspot.com/2016/01/identifying-local-opportunities.htm

Just like in Miami-Dade, the weather is effecting travelers. Here is the link to my list if you want to check it out!
