I guess it might be natural for some local residents to not like strangers/visitors/tourists coming to their towns during the summer months. They certainly add to the congestion in the area. Maybe that’s one of the reasons (or maybe not) the illustration above suggests locals go into hiding during the summer and it being safe to come back out into the community in the fall when they are gone. Too bad because one of the reasons we bought a property in the County is because we really like the local people and the great wine, food, arts, culture etc. that the summer tourism supports. The cartoon implies that locals should view summer visitors in the County as a negative thing. It would be better to celebrate the fact that so many people love to come to the County and recognize it as a positive thing.
