Tuesday

Garbage Day

It's 26 degrees and snowing!


Yesterday, the temperature rose to nearly 50 degrees and, looking westward from Brothertown Road, it appeared that Spring had come to Pleasant Valley.

This morning, however, about an inch of "puff" has collected on the shrubbery next to my front door - just enough to cover up the mud and make things look clean, again!


Jeff Reynolds sent me these two photographs of "Glimmerglass" - one taken last Saturday, when several fishing shanties could be seen in the far distance .......


... and this, taken yesterday afternoon, when there were none.


I wondered what our lakes and ponds looked like, and took a ride out to Bailey Lake ...


... and Gorton Lake.


There's a great deal of water in the pond on Sally Road and, once again, "Lake Hanover" is slowing northbound traffic.

Here's theWKTV Forecast.

• Tuesday: Mostly cloudy with flurries or some light snow. Very little accumulation expected. High near 30.
• Tuesday night: Cooler with heavy lake snows well north of Utica and Rome. Low in the low teens.
• Wednesday: Flurries possible, especially south of Utica, with heavier lake snows remaining well north. High: 24, Low: 12
• Thursday: A mix of sun and clouds after some morning clouds and flurries. High: 24, Low: 13

The WCS Boys' Varsity Basketball team lost to Watertown, 72 - 63 in the Section III Quarterfinals. The WCS Girls will play Fabius-Pompey tonight at 7:00 -

(Can someone please confirm the location of that game? Thanks!)

First it was the Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper at Grace Church and then Pancakes at Deansboro-Waterville Lions Club Breakfast, last Sunday, and now Becky Maggio has sent me this poster. We shall not starve!

I've been watching this poor old house on Route 315.

What a transformation - at least on the outside!

I also watch this big, new sign at Nice 'n Easy in Sangerfield and thought it might be interesting to add this information, now and then - just to see how much of a change takes place, when.

Have a good day, everyone!
