The TIC is chugging right along.  At closing yesterday afternoon our total visitor count for April is 476 making the season total 753.  Making our daily '10 a day' average goal.  The 2009 season started with '10 a day' quickly jumped to 20 and by August we were averaging 30 a day.  We anticipate another good season. The 'Dogwood Daze' city wide yard sale participant number is increasing daily.  I will forward the names to Howard Mainprize at noon today so he can add the locations to the city map available on-line at the chamber of commerce website.  Folk are still planning yard sales even though rain is predicted for Saturday.   Pat and Viola had a quiet day at the center yesterday, but those times just give us more steam for the rest of the trip.  Chris is taking a few days off from the center.  He does a great job when he is on board, but sometimes you just need to switch onto a 'side rail' and take a break.  He won't be just sittin however.  He will be busy filling ToshLand Dessert orders.
