Yesterday my wife Carole and I raced through the Meridian Mall for 45 minutes. We were totally shocked that the mall was so busy and thriving. There were a lot of people everywhere in this mall. Lots of families and children. The food court was also crowded.

Like I said, we were amazed at how many people were shopping and spending money. I think people are just sick of this pandemic and everything that’s going on. Plus, Meridian Mall is kid-friendly with a variety of activities and businesses that can accommodate fun and excitement for families. It was great walking with my wife at a brisk pace for cardio too. It was refreshing to go out and check out the Meridian mall. And seeing so many people was great.

I thought there would be tumbleweeds blowing there and it would be like a ghost town, but it was quite the opposite. Maybe even with inflation, gas prices and the pandemic, people will come back to the malls. I hope so!
