⚓️ this week in LBI: 12/21/23

Mornin’!

Things will be slowing down on the island over the next few weeks (as you’ll notice below) BUT plenty of local shops and businesses are still open… so get your last-minute holiday shopping in this weekend!

Also, a quick note… there won’t be a newsletter sent out next week as we’ll be taking some time off for the holidays. We’ll be back in action on Jan. 4th.

P.S. Wishing a very 🥳 Happy Birthday 🥳 (on the 30th) to Anne C.!
