It's Garbage Day!
50 degrees, rainy and windy.
Tom had it right! It was a fantastic day!
The DPW mowed and trimmed and set up the "stage" in the Park getting ready for the Saturday "Mayfest" sponsored by the Waterville Area Chamber of Commerce.
A great day for a bike ride!
There are tractors everywhere: in fields and on roadways, as they go from one location to another.
I don't think that it was more than two weeks ago that I watched Sally Zweifel "rolling oats" at this field in Hanover where, now, the oats are already looking green.
I'd been watching little yellow blobs on a magnolia at the Meszlers' on Sanger Avenue - the blossoms are opening!
On Sanger Avenue, where repairs and refurbishments have been under way for several months, a four-unit apartment house will soon be ready for occupancy.
Also on Sanger Avenue, Mrs. Lew's residence is now getting new white siding.
In Sangerfield at the old "Exchange," the oven has been saved as a curiosity .....
..... and, under "Duke's" supervision, an all-new barroom is being built where a much earlier one once existed.
At Alcotts ......... an annual (and perennial) delight!
Judy Christman turned around and asked if I'd found what I wanted:
"Yes," I said, " I'll take some of everything,
But I'll come back later."

Barb McNamara sent me this photograph of an enormous American Flag that she spotted in Middleburgh, last week.
(I Googled "Middleburgh flag" and found an ad labeled "120' flagpole." That gives some idea of the size.) I also discovered the web site of the New York State Military Museum in Saratoga Springs, sponsors of the New York State Battle Flag Preservation Project.

WKTV's meteorologist predicts that: "A cold front will approach from the west and affect our weather over the next 24 hours. For tonight, clouds will increase. There is a slight risk for a shower well after midnight, but the vast majority of the night will be dry. Low 50.
For tomorrow, showers are likely with the chance of an afternoon thunderstorm as the front edges eastward across the state. High 65-70.
Showers and skies will clear out by late tomorrow night. Low in the mie 40's. Ample sun returns Friday with a high in the low 70's."
