Good Morning Portage Lakes, Ohio! The leaves are appearing on the trees,

the sun is out and it is time to come to the "lakes" to boat, swim, fish and

sail! Oh and don't forget all the wonderful restaurants and bars on the lake

that you can drive your boat up to and dine in the sun and fun on the "lakes".

We come out of hibernation and meet and greet our neighbors at the Harbor

Inn, Hook Line and Drinkers, Deitz's, Howie's on the Lake, Dusty's, and

Dano's. Come to the "lakes" and stay for a lifestyle! We are the

friendliest people you will meet in any tiny sleepy community!

The Akron Roundtable's speaker yesterday was Stuart Lichter of Industrial Realty Group.

This was the papers headline:

DEVELOPER SEES PENT UP DEMAND

Mr. Lichter is a real estate devoper who owns 70 million square feet of industrial property in 20 states!

The following are some exerpts of the article in the Akron Beacon Journal

"I don't think I've ever seen people more scared and less understanding of what's going on and what's

likely to happen."

"Certainly this is the most serious crisis we've had since the Depression.......Maybe we'll call it the

Great Recession."

‘‘We should blame the fact that when securitized capital became so significant in this market, nobody

He also places some blame on the price of oil.

‘‘That has been underrated as a cause of what's happening, " he said . Never in history has oil

been above $ 100 a barrel for more than a day or two, let alone for such a sustained period

as during 2008.

‘‘In this country, that's $1 billion a day'' of increased spending, he said. ‘‘ . . . That 's money

that is taken out of the economy."

‘‘There is good news,'' Lichter said. ‘‘There's a natural trend to these things.''

The Cleveland Indians had their home opener on Friday April 10th and suffered through rain delays and

the fans were still happy to be there because they know that spring if now official and the "Boys of

Summer" will come through soon! They lost the opener but did come through with a win on Easter Sunday!

Good luck to the Indians and may they turn themselves into the winners we know that they can be!

I know that the fans will always be there for them, as the photo below proves!
