03 Jul Here Comes Summer! Don’t Blink
Can you believe it is July already? Summer is my favorite season. While I hope you are enjoying it, we have work to do!
Happy 4th of July!
Can’t believe we’ve come this far and
It feels just like getting started
Somehow we’re still running
No, you did not miss my June newsletter. It did not get created.
Why?
Many of you learned from the past, didn’t wait until August, and booked your fall transportation. We have many sold-out weekends through Thanksgiving.
Do you know if you need fall transportation? Sundays, Mondays, and Wednesdays will be the easiest. Tuesdays and Thursdays are filling. The time to book was yesterday. LOL. Seriously, though. Give me a call and let’s see what we can do!

Diesel Prices Rise for First Time in Two Months
It continues to be a yo-yo. If you are asking for a quote more than 3 months out, I am including the fuel surcharge as a line item for your budget planning purposes. If, at the time of invoicing, fuel has not reached $5.50/gallon, I remove the surcharge. I am optimistically cautious. Below is the best link for up-to-date fuel information.

Operation Safe Driver Week Is July 9-15
Employee shortages continue in the hospitality industry. Drivers, hotel staff, wait staff, etc….

Flying can be more efficient until flights are canceled and your trip is thwarted. While a motorcoach could have delays, we WILL get you to your destination. We have not canceled a trip with our clients.
In this moment, it’s electric
Can you see it? Can you feel it?
This dream inside is still alive today
