August 2, 2018
What comes to mind when you think of Saline’s Summerfest? Or its car show? Or, in this case, its trolley? [1] Sometimes it’s nice to pull back the curtain and show a bit of the process that goes into the seeming effortlessness of delivering wonderful substance. Sometimes it’s the littlest things — things you might never notice, unless they weren’t there. Other times, they’re bigger. Last month, for example, we told one such story as ....
