There are a lot of people around these days. Mornings seem slow, but when I&#8217;m out walking at lunch, people are everywhere. On the weekends it&#8217;s obviously even busier. I obviously don&#8217;t know if those people are spending any money, but if they are here, you have to assume they are spending at least some of their money.<\/p>\n<p>We should have a beautiful weekend ahead of us.
