Here we are—a new month, a new year and new time to enjoy living in Lewis County. I love this time of year. There’s a fresh, crisp scent in the air. The sun shines much more regularly than it did in the fall. Plus, we get to enjoy relatively warm weather (compared to our friends in colder, more snowey areas). Plus, there are plenty of opportunities to gather together and enjoy life. Here are a few ideas of what to do in Lewis County in January. And don’t forget to visit our full LewisTalk events calendar for even more fun local happenings.
