My computer has recovered from an early
morning "fit,"
there's no snow, and
It's WARM!
53 degrees and cloudy.
The ladies were out running, yesterday afternoon, but stopped to give a
big wave to the World!
Main Street was back to normal ........
.......... and Tom's sidewalk all but shouted
"Welcome Spring!"
********************************
Another "Welcome!"
to
Patrick and Erin McNamara's little girl,
Aislinn Grace,
who was born last Saturday.
Aislinn is Tom and Kate McNamara's fifth grandchild
and her other grandparents are

Welcome back to "work!"
The David O'Briens stopped to supervise Dave Lemery, who was out raking leaves.
It's great to see him out-and-about: it was just about six months ago that he was in Boston undergoing a bone marrow transplant and had the rest of us on pins and needles!

Something new on Sanger Avenue ...... a new porch and two sets of stairs at Mrs. Lew's residence.
***********************
Here and there, in and around Waterville, there are several signs advertising the May 16 Auction of the Sanger Mansion.
At the Brothertown Optimist meeting, on Wednesday evening, one lady voiced the question that a great many people have had in mind: "How can we tell them (the McLanes) how much we appreciate what they've done for us by saving 'the mansion' from falling into complete ruin?"
I suppose that the answer is so very obvious that it's eluded many of us:
we simply write to them and say "Thank You!"!

Out in the country, more little hepaticas are blooming - pink, lavender and white - and .......

Rain will be with us on and off this afternoon, with temperatures staying in the 50s through the day. There will be a stiff east wind day, sustained 12-25mph. Rain will continue this evening and overnight, with total rainfall amounts by tomorrow morning between 0.50-1.00".The David O'Briens stopped to supervise Dave Lemery, who was out raking leaves.

Finally - here's the BAD NEWS:
Colder air will draw into the region on the back end of this storm system. Temperatures are expected to drop into the low 40s shortly before daybreak tomorrow. Rain showers will continue on and off through the day, with the potential for some wet snow in the higher elevations. Any snow we do see is not expected to accumulate. Temperatures will only stay in the low 40s through the day. With a northwest wind between 15-30mph, it's going to feel like a raw, chilly day.
A break from the storminess for Sunday, with a return to some sunshine. High temperatures will rebound to near 50 degrees with less wind.
Our next storm system will arrive Monday morning, giving us more clouds and rain. "
