It’s Tuesday morning and what a beautiful Tuesday morning it is! We’ve been given another day of this sunshine and from the looks of it, I think we’re going to hang on to this sunshine throughout the week! A nice, mild sun-filled week in Munising…. aahhhhhhhh. (yep, there I was daydreaming about our beaches in the summer time!)
James and I are going to be hitting the bricks this week and cruising town attempting to meet as many of our fans and listeners as possible. So if you see us out and about, stop and say hello! Grab a bumper sticker! Let us know what YOU’D like to hear more of on the radio. It’ll be nice to get some feedback from our listeners and new ideas!
We’ve got alot of new things that’ll be happening here at the station in the next few weeks so be sure to keep listening, checking our website- www.wqxo.com and also check us out on facebook! We’ll be seeing you soon!

GOOD WEATHER…AN O.K. WEEK.
SUNRISE TODAY IN MARQUETTE.
O.K., so what’s kind of tripping me out is that the weather is great again today, but I feel less than upbeat. Usually this kind of weather gets me in a better mood, but it ain’t happenin’, kids. Yesterday was a mess of a Monday, and today has been pretty blah as well. I should feel better….I mean, look how the day started today. A glorious sunrise! It’s been a nice day, too! Oh well, maybe tomorrow will have a better run! Let’s try it then and see what happens!
CHEERS!
