Around Alpharetta/Milton/Windward
Life is moving so fast. No one sees this movement like moms. But maybe on Mother’s Day things can slow down long enough for her to hear how much she means to you. It has been a wonderful experience to read the entries for the 2008 Mother of the Year contest. I understand that around your home there is only one "Mother of the Year" but this contest gives us the opportunity to focus on all the moms of our community and select an individual that can represent all. See page 22 for this year’s Mother of the Year, Catherine Hanson, nominated by her 16 year-old son, Kevin. You can see all the smiles from the Readers’ Choice Awards ceremony held at 5 Seasons North. Business owners and managers were recognized for being selected by you, the readers of Around Town Milton/Alpharetta/Windward, as the best of the best in their business category. What better honor than to be chosen by your customers! Spring and summer bring back memories of convertibles and hotrods. Remember when hot rods had fins and muscle cars made you cool even when the weather was hot? We are excited to have on our cover this month, Flashback Motorworks Restoration and Collision. For owner Richard Gossett, hot rods and muscle cars are more than a memory — they are his life. Read the story on pages 16 and 17.
