PRESCOTT – Yes, it's here! We are full into summer as noted by the increase in temperatures and humidity. The St. Croix beach has been filled with many summer enthusiasts. And the number of boats on the St. Croix over the past weekend was beautiful. The rain we had recently has brought out a lot of blossoms in many gardens around town. Thank you to all the gardeners for your efforts.
