It's 50 degrees and super-clear, at 5:30, with the "Belt of Orion" unmistakable in "The Hunter," leading to neighboring stars and constellations.
The WKTV forecast for the weekend: "Good morning Central New York! A changeable weather day expected today, with much cooler weather by tonight.
Clear to partly cloudy skies this morning. Temperatures have fallen into the upper 40s to low 50s in many areas. Bring a light jacket heading out the door this morning.
A cold front will drop in from the north today. Ahead of the front, temperatures will quickly rise into the mid 60s shortly after noon with a mix of sunshine and clouds. The front will bring clouds and showers between noon and 3pm this afternoon. Once the front passes, much cooler and breezy weather will arrive by the evening. Temperatures will fall into the 50s near dinner.
Skies clear out tonight and the breeze dies down. Overnight lows will fall into the upper 30s to near 40!
High pressure builds in Saturday, bringing us abundant sunshine. Temepratures will be on the cool side, in the mid 60s. A breeze will pick up by afternoon, but will die down towards evening. Overnight lows Saturday night will fall into the mid 30s across much of the Mohawk Valley. Widespread frost is likely heading into Sunday morning. Make preparations to bring in or cover sensitive plants.
Sunshine will continue on Sunday. Despite the chilly start, temperatures will approach the low 70s by afternoon! Warm weather is expected as we head into next week, with a few showers here and there."

Q. AND A. about Cruise-in:
Unfortunately, we did not receive a reply to Sandy Harding's query about the location of vendors. We have, however, been told that the Trolley will be stopping at the Park, even though that is not indicated on the map (downloadable at the Cruisin in website.)

It was a drizzly morning, yesterday, but Mike, Blake and Chris were right at work, early.
Ray Drake had finished the sidewalks - both front and rear - on Wednesday, and by late Thursday afternoon the carpentry team had done about all they could do - until remaining spindles and stair railings arrive - including installing the Victorian lamp post which had been removed several months ago.
GIVING CREDIT WHERE IT'S DUE!
Mike and I are both receiving a great many compliments which should be shared with
THE ORIGINAL DESIGNERS
Jean B. Davis
Don Brown II
Jennifer Dobmeier Dapson
Joe and Kelly Falk
Louis C. Langone
Carol and Stanley Sambora
Wendy Sexton
Susannah Quayle
Betsey and Larry Youngs
and committee members
Mabel Bushee and Dale Meszler.
**************
The Memorial Bandstand Fund will close its Donation Lists at the end of the month so that bronze plaques for the monument can be cast.
If there are any more contributions being considered, now's the time to let me know!

IN THE MORNING MAIL!
Guess Who!
FOR THE RECORD
If you think that this is a short blog post, you're right! I began reading Dan Brown's new novel, "The Lost Symbol," at around 5:00 on Wednesday afternoon and ............... well ............ I haven't done much of anything but read, since then!

If "Cruise-in' activities just aren't your "thing" (and that IS possible!)
remember that the 14th Annual Oneida County Hop Fest is in progress in Oneida!
Whatever you do, tomorrow,
Have a Great Weekend, Everyone!
