Fire broke out around 5:30 yesterday afternoon in the little white building on Stafford Avenue known to many as "Doc. Battles' Office," two doors South of St. Bernard's Catholic Church. An article in this morning's Observer-Dispatch reports that while three adults and one child were saved, one person was killed in the fire. Other coverage can be found on WKTV.

It's BIG TRASH DAY

WKTV's weather forecast: "Despite some sunshine on Tuesday, temperatures are only expected to rebound into the teens. Bundle up!
Our chilly weather will last into Wednesday. High temperatures will rebound to 20-25 degrees after a chilly start. By Thursday, warmer air will begin to push our way. As this warm air mass attempts to overtake the chilly air in place some light mixed precipitation is possible by the end of the workweek. Stay tuned! It still appears that mild air will make it into CNY for America's Greatest Heart Run and Walk on Saturday."
Gail and her sister, Diane Bancroft, vacationed there during the President's Birthday Week and Diane's daughter, Stephanie, stayed with them for several days. Stephanie is in school in Santiago (about 2 hours from the resort) for the Spring semester. She will be returning home on April 29.

I almost feel like declaring that my cameras and I are on strike and hereby refuse to take any more pictures of WHITE, so - if there are other blog-readers who have more brightly-colored photographs to share - please send them along!
I'll follow up on the Stafford Avenue fire, later this morning.

Have a Great Day, Everyone!
