Friday

This was yesterday ................... minus 11 degrees

at the Brouillettes on Barton Avenue!

Only snomobilers cheered!

Trail east from Osborn Avenue.


After all, a year ago now there was no snow .......



.......... just ice!

***

This morning, in Whiskey Hollow, it's 9 degrees ABOVE zero!

WKTV's Weather Forecast: "Clouds will hang around Friday morning, but we should see some breaks of sunshine by afternoon. While we're not talking about a heat wave, conditions should be less harsh with temperatures rebounding into the mid and upper 20's by late in the day.
A strengthening area of high pressure will direct warmer air from the southern states our way for Saturday. Some question marks remain as to exactly how much of that warm air gets in here, but 35-40 degree readings are a fair call for Saturday afternoon. If we see any extra sunshine, lower 40's are not out of the question.
A cold front will arrive with some wet snow and rain showers for Sunday and then temperatures will temporarily cool down before a warmup and maybe some snow, ice and rain by the middle of next week. "

Is there anyone in the Waterville area who records snowfall amounts?

The weather will be just right for Ice Harvesting in Millers Mills on Sunday!

Just to get you going - drive E. on Route 20 past Winfield and take Route 51 N.
Watch for a right-hand turn onto Millers Mills Road.

This is the important part:

When you get to a crossroads, make sure you turn left!

Last night:

"The Last Train from Paris."

Strangers on a train. There's been a murder, and one of them is guilty!



A traveling salesman and a seamtress from Sangerfield!

Are they telling the truth?

How could anyone suspect this pretty young lady of being a malcontent, murdering soldier-of-fortune?

Clues, cheese quiche and comedic clichés
kept the volunteer suspects giggling for a full three hours
at the first "How to Host a Murder" party
sponsored by the Waterville Public Library -
Jill Getman and Jeff Reynolds, hosts.

Who Done it?

No one's telling, because it would be a crime to
not do a repeat "performance" for eight more suspicious sleuths:

soon!
