It's Recyclables Day

and the DPW has been having quite a time of it chasing those recyclables all over the village! Question: "Didn't anyone notice that the wind was blowing - HARD - when they put their recyclables out, last evening?"

27.9 degrees and overcast - but dry.

WKTV forecasts: "A few fair weather clouds will be around on Wednesday, and it will be substantially colder than Tuesday. Highs will struggle to get to 40 degrees. After sunset, any clouds will vanish tomorrow night, yielding a chilly night, with less wind and lows in the teens. On Thursday, a gorgeous day is expected, with lots of sunshine and highs near or into the 50s. Clouds will increase on Thursday night ahead of.....
...Our next weathermaker will be a storm system on Friday that is likely to bring us a cold rain. A few wet snowflakes may mix in over the Adirondacks, but at this time, no accumulation is anticipated."

Here we go, again! At 3:15 I was voter #41.

There was some sort of activity out on Madison Street
at the site where Mr. Pumilia had proposed (two years ago)
to construct townhouses. Perhaps now?


There were lots and lots of temporary ponds in fields - this next to Route 12 south - providing temporary rest stops for travelers heading North.



I've seen a lot of little Killdeer skimming low over fields, looking for nesting spots.

This was one reason why I was not at Municipal Hall at nine o'clock, last night: the other was that I had hooked up an external hard drive filled with The Waterville Times from Day 1 and I couldn't make myself stop reading!!!

This is what my monitor looks like with the "search" function in operation. I simply typed in "George Eastman" and, in about thirty seconds, was given a choice of hundreds of articles to read!

Arrangements are being made to provide a new computer, dedicated solely to this purpose, for public use at the Waterville Public Library!

Have a Great Day!
