It's 30 degrees.
Although snow fell all day, yesterday, it was just too warm for any accumulation to take place.
It stuck on the tops of Teasel (or Teazle)
and these goose-necked grasses
.......... but only made the road wet, down near Forge Hollow, where surveyors are planning something to amuse drivers, next Summer.

This Letter from Cindy Gallagher to the Editor ( of The Waterville Times and/or the blogger) and Readers was in my mail, yesterday:
"To the Editor/To Waterville Residents:
As our children and family attended various sports activities this past weekend, I pondered on how blessed our community is to have so many willing volunteers to work with area youth. We have great extracurricular options available at school. Many people give time to help the band boosters, theatre goups, sports boosters, Covalt, PTA etc. Then when I think of the hours that local volunteers give for youth to participate in AYSO soccer, indoor soccer, Optimist Biddy Basketball, Baseball and Softball Leagues, Pop Warner Football and Cheerleading, Scouting and 4-H I am overwhelmed with gratitude to the various volunteers. Volunteers also put on snowmobile, ATV and hunter safety courses. Furthermore, the area churches have activities and youth religious education classes. I wanted these volunteers to know that we appreciate their time, effort and concern for our youth. Please remember to thank your coaches and volunteers.
Cindy Gallagher
PS No youth in our community should be able to claim that they have nothing to do. Parents, encourage your kids to join a worthwhile endeavor and then get involved too!"

New doorway decoration on Madison Street!
More ornamental ironwork.
This is on the house next to the Post Office. It was built around 1850 by Julius Candee and is in a style described as "Italian Villa with icicle cornices."

Last week I had a note about "Lee the Horse Logger," whom we met last summer, and found this updated website.
I don't believe that I'm the only one who's tiring of red Poinsettias and is adding other house plants to her surroundings. I've always loved Cyclamen because their blossoms are so wildly butterfly-ish, but I seem to have a way of killing them, fast. Thanks to Google, now I know what NOT to do! (And it's the same with those pretty Azaleas!)

And I've had about a dozen letters, - mostly from men, I'm afraid - asking why the blog ended on January 1st! Well, it didn't, of course. (When something's identified as a link - or even LOOKS like a link - click on it!!!)
