Good morning Carson City and welcome to Thursday, Nov. 1, 2018. We're now in the month that ushers in the holiday season with Thanksgiving and Christmas around the corner. As for today, there's a number of activities around town including a blood drive, networking opportunities, El Dia De Los Muertos celebration at WNC, an afternoon hike, a movie showing at the Jack C. Davis Observatory, art displays and more.

Happy Halloween! I thought I would hold this column for the scariest day of the year because, if you don’t plan alternative communication or business strategies during the low points of your business cycle, you could scare yourself into bad decision making.
