It's 25.9 degrees F. / -3.38 C.
I don't know just how chilly it was, at 3 o'clock this morning, but it was nippy! The sky, however, was super-clear and I did spend nearly an hour out on my back lawn, wrapped in a "space blanket" and sleeping bag, staring upwards. It was worth it!
If only I could have taken pictures to show you!
But then I went back to bed and ............................

WKTV's forecast: "Good morning Central New York! Unusually quiet but pleasant November weather continues!
A chilly, frosty start to the morning. Temperatures starting out in the 20s across most areas. Here's a look at your bus stop forecast:
A large and expansive area of high pressure will build in from the northwest today. This will keep us high and dry for the next several days. Today's weather will feature wall to wall sunshine and slightly warmer temperatures. Highs in the afternoon will top off near 50. Another clear night tonight, with overnight lows down into the 20s.
High pressure in control Wednesday and Thursday, bringing more sunshine and seasonably warm temperatures. Clouds and showers come back into the picture on Thursday night and Friday as a weak storm system passes close by. A few leftover showers on Saturday morning, with drier weather by Saturday.

all the Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, Scout leaders, parents, community businesses, and most importantly, all the generous people of Waterville and the surrounding area who gave so many items to the Scouting for Food drive this past Saturday: It was great!

TELEPHONE NEWS
from Mike Tower who was - or had just been - in the Park and who assured me that work on the Bandstand has NOT come to a complete halt for the Winter, as was feared!
Digging/grading should be taking place around the foundation;
then a "Fypon" covering will be applied.
Stone mason Ray Drake is expected to be applying "blue stone"
to the front steps of the structure .....
after which, final measurements for the permanent railings
will be made and those will be installed.
The "arches" that go between the upright posts - for which everyone has been waiting - still need to be fabricated. They did not come from Fypon preformed, although the material is right at hand, and are trickier to draw and make than any previous ornamentation. No promises, but we MAY get to see what they look like before Winter.
And for all of that information,
Thank You, first, to Jean Davis, who emailed me saying,
"Will someone please paint those 2 x 4 railings!"
thus prompting me to write to Mike and ask ....
"Why?"
and Thank You to Mike for his reply!

I spent quite a while, yesterday, reading the reviews of the Saturday night opening of
"RAGTIME"
on Broadway and it sounds to me as if Tracy Lynn Olivera, valedictorian of the Class of 1995 at WCS, will be spending her immediate future in New York!
Congratulations, Tracy!
