Wednesday





It's Recyclables Day!

47.5 degrees and overcast.



FARMERS MARKET OPENS!


The WKTV forecast: "A frontal boundary has stalled to our south and will serve as a focusing mechanism for showers and thunderstorms. The front is far enough to the south to keep most of the shower activity out of Central New York. The only exception would be for the southern valleys . For today, expect partly to mostly cloudy skies with highs in the mid to upper 60s.

Skies will clear out tonight, as drier air builds in from the north. Lows in the low 40s.

A great weather pattern sets up for the end of the week. An area of high pressure will keep skies sunny, with temperatures returning to seaonal averages, in the 70s on Thursday and Friday. The only potential fly in the ointment is an area of tropical storminess that is expected to pass south and east of the region. It may steer close enough to give us a few extra clouds late Thursday and early Friday.

Warmer weather will slowly trickle in through the weekend, with highs creeping into the mid 70s by Saturday.

In this morning's Observer-Dispatch, a brief notice of the death of Harold "Buster" Davis, who passed away in Florida on Monday and whose funeral will take place here, in Waterville, on Thursday evening.

The first place that I went to take pictures, yesterday, was the most-recently proposed site of the Informational Kiosk at the corner of Sanger Avenue and Madison Street.

First, as I headed west on Madison .............



............. and then as I came back into the village.

Every time I drive out Sanger Avenue I have the same thought: it looks as if a it were a municipal "parkway" cared for by a professional crew!




The whole village looks as well cared for as any around here, thanks partly to regular sweeping by the DPW..........



........... and plantings like this on Putnam Street .........



and Fr. Tom's front porch garden!

Jeff Reynolds sent me this view of the countryside near Richfield Spring .....


........ where he found a field filled with Buttercups and "Gilleyflowers."

(Thanks, Jeff!)


On one of my country-road rides - following Zweifel Road - I found another new house growing! Little by little, the quiet farmland countryside changes.
