It's Recyclables Day!
ALSO FARMERS' MARKET DAY, HOWEVER.........
WKTV's advice: "Bring the umbrella as you head out the door this morning. Showers and thunderstorms will move in between 6-7AM. These thunderstorms will be accompanied by locally heavy rain. Temperatures are mild this morning, starting out in the upper 50s.
A strong cold front moving through this morning will be followed by some stronger winds. Winds are expected to pick up behind the thunderstorms this morning. A wind advisory is in effect for most of the area. Winds are expected to become sustained between 15-25mph from the west, with gusts over 35mph. Expect a lot of leaf fall today, especially in the higher elevations.
As for rain, it is not expected to be a washout today. The wettest part of the day for many will be in the morning. A break in the rain by the late morning. Lake effect rain will develop today. Winds will shift from the southwest to the northwest today, causing the band to shift through the day. Showers will move in by the afternoon, with scattered showers in many spots. Temperatures are expected to slowly fall through the 50s through the day.
Another break in the rain on Thursday, before our next, stronger storm system moves in for Friday. Friday will be a warm day, with a bit of a breeze, followed by much cooler but mainly dry weather for Saturday and Sunday. Some rain is possible as we look ahead ot Columbus day."

An Enote from Liska Savage that tells us what sister Lucy was doing all Summer! She was "working" as a member of the "Dreamteam" on the set of "Survivor: Samoa!" (You can learn what the "dreamteam" does by clicking here, 'though this is from another Survivor series and you won't see Lucy.)
Fred Ashforth sent this picture of Corrine and Troy Bishopp "learning the slow, smooth and romantic Night Club Slow Dance." The Ashforths are teaching a Basic Ballroom Dance class at the Waterville American Legion, again. "Couples from Waterville, Deansboro and Hamilton get together Monday nights to have some fun while learning the Swing, Night Club Slow Dance, Foxtrot and Waltz."
Classes will run until mid-November. (If you feel inspired, call the Ashforths at 841-4875.)
On White Street.
On Sanger Avenue.
The Haunted House is open, now, at Alcotts' Greenhouse.
(It sounded really creepy .......... I didn't dare ..........!)

Jody Hildreth and three of his buddies climbed Wright Peak, last weekend.
(At least they think that's where they were!)
There's nothing like crawling uphill for three or fours hours and then not being able to see anything!
It was much less foggy at lower altitudes, and - as always - Jody's eye saw some wonderful sights ..........
........ both great and small!
(This is a red-spotted newt.)

FOR THE RECORD
It's the Yankees vs. Minnesota tonight at 6:07 in NY.
The Sox travel West to meet the Angels Thursday night at 9:30.

Have a great day, every one!
But here she is!
Click the image to go to a video of her "at work!"

FOR THE RECORD
In re: yesterday's post and my remarks about the services performed by the Waterville Area Food Pantry I gave the wrong impression when I wrote that about 20 families were served. This, from Coordinator Vicki Sabol, is accurate:
(The Food Pantry) "may be helping about 20 families this month and 20 on average, but they may all be different or overlap, as families have differing needs. Some may come to us monthly, some only a couple of times a year. So, overall we are assisting many more than 20 families, probably double that at one time or another. At holiday time, we surely are helping about 40 families."
