Everyone should be encouraged to shop local once the snow is all clear. I own Cloverhill Yarn Shop in Catonsville, and we have had to close many days for these storms. This really hurts our business, and I would like to encourage people to consider that when they are back on the streets. There are also many small and local bakeries and restaurants that I am sure are hurting due to the storm.
