We are creatures of habit. We really are, when you think about it. Our morning usually has some semblance of a routine and often times we do the same ole, same ole. We live day in and day out and days turn into weeks, turn into months…….blah blah blah. OMG, all that sounds sort of depressing, eh? Let’s change it up a little. Let’s do just one thing different and turn our backs on doldrum.
It’s time to discover something new in Barrie and here is how we are going to facilitate that. We are going to focus on treasures untold on certain streets and drives in Barrie.
