While the OTT team firmly believes that any time is the right time for change, sometimes a holiday is the best jump start. For as long as I’ve known it, Memorial Day is the official start of the summer. The hope and joy of spring is turning into the excitement of what summer can hold. In our family MDW tends to be a 'working holiday' - getting as much work done as we can. But just beyond the to-do lists and house projects is a summer that's meant to be enjoyed! Hopefully you are building in days and weeks to unthaw from the winter, and celebrate the great season that summer is. Whether that's a great vacation, relaxing days in the sun, or quality time with family, OTT is here to say let's SOAK UP SUMMER. Here’s what we hope to do this summer!
