*****************************
It's 49 degrees and sunny.
WKTV's forecast: "Bonus weather continues over the next few days.
A cool start to the day! Temperatures in the upper 40s and low 50s across most of the area. Look for plenty of sunshine as we head through the morning, with a few fair weather clouds developing by afternoon. Partly sunny, with highs in the mid 70s.
Mainly clear tonight, with temperatures in the upper 40s to low 50s once again. Sunshine will continue tomorrow, with less cloudiness by afternoon. We'll call it mostly sunny, with highs in the mid 70s.
Some changes by the weekend. A warm front will make a run into Central New York, giving us some cloudiness and the chance for showers and thunderstorms on Saturday. Temperatures expected to be only in the low 70s because of the cloud cover.
Warm air returns by Sunday. Temperatures are expected to be in the mid 80s both Sunday and Monday. It will become a bit unsettled here by Tuesday , with showers and thunderstorms as a cold front approaches. A bit cooler by mid week."
Great weather, yesterday, and Mike Tower got a good start on the Bandstand roof.
They're picking beans in Hanover!
PIXALL bean harvesters inched up and down the rows.
I wondered if he was remembering the "old days," when things were done differently!

Speaking of times past, Gil Condon sent a few more memories of Fr. Powers: "I forgot to mention , while in Waterville, Fr. John made Monsignor. He always had Boxer dogs and drove Oldsmobiles and ran a tight ship, God Bless Him."
(Thanks again, Gil!)
I saw Fr. Tom Servatius outside the St. Bernard's rectory, yesterday, and stopped to admire his front porch flowerbed. He pointed out to me four or five newly-planted trees on the front lawn: small evergreens, they appeared to be, about knee-high. He identified them as
Dawn Redwoods, a nearly extinct relative of the giant Sequoias of California.
(No: these will not grow THAT tall and, like the larch or tamarac, they are deciduous and loose their needles in the Winter.)

It's here agan; the time of year when gardeners ask, "What changes the color of hydrangeas?"
The cluster above is at Jack and Darcy Ruane's, on the way to Sangerfield.
There are four or five tubs of pink hydrangeas at Dan Maine's Woodworking Shop in Madison Street ...............
............ and some shrubs with bright blue blossoms in the Library Garden.

On White Street, a photographer waited for the light on his roses to be "just right."
