Greetings Locals Supporters,
We hope you are having a nice spring and your summer, which is right around the corner, is not too intense! We get CA summers and those are pretty tame. Also, happy early Father's Day to the salty dads out there!
Here is your early access monthly update video. Enjoy!
Take Care,
Salty, Mrs. Salty, and The Spirits of Salty Panther and Salty Floof
