This morning's O-D has a bit more on the fire on Sanger Avenue that displaced fourteen people yesterday morning.
WFD Chief Dennis Baldwin was working with the Red Cross Auxiliary, yesterday, to assemble a list of items needed by those families. The Red Cross has issued funds (debit cards) for imediate essentials, but there may be more that we can help with. I'll post the list of sizes, etc. as soon as I have it.
Stretching you memory, again!
Do you remember what these little shacks on Kemp Road were for?

Way back - forty or fifty years ago - Norm Eckerson had a ski area here! The buildings were where the mechanism that ran the rope tow was housed and this was the ski slope!
Repair work is under way on the porch of the famous "Eastern Star Home" on Berrill Avenue. The building was constructed around 1880 by Col. William Osborn as a wedding present for his daughter!
Sunday afternoon: Turkey Dinner on Frog Park Road.
I came upon this herd of deer (or are they elk?) somewhere south of Miller's Mills.
There were a hundred or so, altogether.

And in that same part of the coutryside - this lovely old barn and stone well house.
Right across the maple-lined road was an even older shed with a flag stuck in a knot hole.

Everyone's having fun with the Stats Counter - which, of course, raises the number of hits! However - there's one thing I've figured out: the "busiest time" is NOT at 5 A.M. in Waterville: Bravenet is located in British Columbia where PST is in effect!

Have a great Day!

Wayne Brouillette and "Maple Leaf Construction are due to arrive here this morning to being making noise and dust!!! The Waterville Times - in 1869 - reported that Mr. Jones of Mill Street (that's Buell Avenue, now) had completed an addition to the northern side of his residence. Well ---- some of Mr. Jone's plaster work is starting to fail, so Wayne's coming to the rescue. Then there's some question of a few bits of flooring and perhaps some ...... well, the list goes on and on! Perhaps I'll post pictures of progress!!!
