WILLIAMS – The new pet boutique and supply store, Spoiled Rotten, opened to an enthusiastic crowd today. The boutique is operated by partners Dan Jacoby and Traci Fulkerson of the Williams Veterinary Clinic on Third Street.

The current winter hours for the store are Thursday and Friday from 3 to 8 p.m. and Saturday, Sunday and Monday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. The store is located at 517 E. Route 66 in Williams not far from Many Tails pet grooming service.

The pet boutique is an extension of the service of the Veterinary clinic. Traci said that they are attempting to set us a store that will save people a trip to Flagstaff when it starts to snow. From what we saw the prices are comparable to Pet Smart, though they do not have the extensive stock. Like any other new business that will probably continue to grow with demand.

Bet you are not a climate skeptic now!

141101-03WILLIAMS – The climate change skeptics who have not listened to the fear-mongers of the UN and Al Gore’s multimillion dollar industry received a lesson in Williams. The climate is indeed changing.

High winds began last night pushing moisture into the area. Today the temperatures are dropping and clouds are rolling in as forecast by the National Weather Service. There is a light sprinkle today which could turn into rain. There is a chance of snow tonight through Sunday with accumulations of less than a half-inch expected.
