It's Garbage Day

64 degrees and gray.


WKTV's forecast: "Today looks similar to yesterday. A mix of sunshine and clouds with the chance for showers and thunderstorms. A bit more humid with highs around 80.

A cold front will attempt to push out the humidity by Friday but will have little success. It will succeed in causing widespread showers and storms on Friday. High temperatures will be a touch cooler because of the expected wet weather, with highs in the upper 70s.

For the weekend, the humidity is expected to be back in force. Saturday looks partly sunny and dry. The chance for showers and storms on Sunday, as another cold front will attempt to move in."

The Glimmerglass Opera season is now under way and this weekend's productions are Rossini's "La Cenerentola," Menotti's "The Consul," and Verdi's "La Traviata." While that may excite some Watervillians, far more may be drawn to Cooperstown because it's also Baseball Hall of Fame Weekend: that's major news!

The annual "Honor America Days" concert by the Syracuse Symphony rchestra will take place at Fort Stanwix Saturday evening at 6:45. "Bring a blanket or a lawn chair and enjoy a concert presented by the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra. A grand illumination concludes the concert as cannons and muskets from the fort and fireworks accompany the "1812 Overture" and "Stars and Stripes Forever."

We seem to have reached that point in the year where the village is fairly quiet and residents are enjoying Summer (such as it is!) Vacations and/or just plain doing their own "thing."

That's what I'll be doing for the next several days - in town, out-of-town, visitors coming here; visiting others there. That means that unless there's an event or activity that makes history by deserving or receiving community-wide notice and attention I may not "blog" at all. I will be checking my Email, 'though, so if you have something for me to post, do send it along!

Enjoy!!
