Good Morning Wilmington!
Hope everyone is having a solid week so far. As we start to roll into this weekend keep an eye on the weather. Tropical rainstorms and thunderstorms likely. In local news, the budget agreement has been reached with no legalized gambling in sight. Bet we haven’t heard the last of this. Say goodbye to Fox and Hound restaurant in Mayfaire as the doors abruptly closed. Lots of good memories.
