It's Garbage Day!
53 degrees and foggy.
Despite chilly, wet weather, the Watering Trough in the Park is "overflowing!"
Pat's gardens on S. Babbott Avenue have never been brighter!

From the WKTV Weather Center: "Improving weather for the end of the workweek.
Things look very different on the weather maps this morning. Yesterday's storm that was parked to the north is being replaced by an area of high pressure. This morning, some patchy dense fog in spots. Look for the fog to lift before 7AM. Partly to mostly sunny today with highs in the mid 70s. Skies clear out completely tonight, with overnight lows in the low 50s.
A beautiful finish to the work week! Expect mostly sunny skies on Friday, with highs near 80.
Sunshine to start out Saturday. Things will change as we head through the day. An approaching cold front will bring clouds during the late morning and early afternoon. Showers and thunderstorms are likely Saturday afternoon. Some of these storms could be on the strong side, with gusty winds and small hail possible. Stay tuned.
This cold front passes through Saturday night, and clears the area by Sunday morning. Sunshine along with a few clouds expected at the start of Boilermaker, with racetime temperatures in the low 60s. Temperatures will climb slowly through the day, with highs in the mid 70s.
The Reiles' table was nearly empty - and more so after I bought a loaf each of whole wheat bread (with sunflower seeds and raisins!) and banana bread!

THIS MORNING
in "Whiskey Hollow"
John Lincoln-Lovely came to my front door around 9:00, this morning, to tell me that this (above) was happening:
a load of sheetrock was being raised to a second-floor doorway by a very large crane.
The challenge? Look at all of those wires!

While we stood watching, we talked about what the builders of that structure would think of what was going on: on the theory that the building was used as a storeroom for the distillery that once stood across the road, it must have been built around or before 1810. Could those carpenters have ever imagined - in their wildest dreams - that motorized vehicles would be passing on a paved roadway or that essential currents of electricity or telephone transmissions were traveling through wires like that? Sometimes events that we consider "everyday" are more historic than we realize!

LOOKING AHEAD
Yesterday started out chilly and dank - so much so that a few of the usual vendors were missing from the weekly Farmers' Market in the Park.
I didn't get there until just a bit before closing time and, although merchants were packing up to leave, I got a good look at the Pet Supplies table. If you do not already know how to completely pamper and spoil your dog or cat, they'll be more than willing to show you how!
I didn't remember seeing this display, last week, but couldn't help stopping to look at all of the Red Hat accessories!
No: I'm not a Red Hatter, but that Teddy Bear sure is cute!
