We decided to give the staff a four-day vacation • several regular features will be posted soon

Loyal Icon viewers:
The long Thanksgiving weekend gave the Icon staff the chance to take a break from work. 

Several regular features, plus stories emailed to us since Thursday are sitting "on deck" ready to post.

Have no fear, our brief hiatus is at an end and our staff has clocked in and is working through the emails. 

Thanks for your patience. It was a great weekend to take off! Hope your's was just as rewarding.
