Tuesday W/ add-on

Tuesday afternoon:


**********************

GREEN WASTE COLLECTION

*********


Brrrrr!


It's 35 degrees and clear.

A headline in this morning's O-D reads:

"Cold Front May Bring a Little Snow"


WKTV's forecast reads: "We'll start off with sunshine, but the cold pool of air over us is going to allow for clouds to pop up everywhere during the middle of the day. Still, temperatures will improve over Monday, with many locations getting well into the 50s to near 60 degrees for highs. Then, a reinforcing shot of cold will pivot back in over us on Tuesday night and Wednesday."


Waiting for warm weather ........ the benches are all out and ........


more and more window boxes and planters are on display.

Despite the chill, the little bell-shaped flowers on Solomon's Seal are opening .......


and the "Crane's Bill" from Nine Mile Swamp is in bloom.


There's a new announcement on the bulletin board in the Park.

Mark that on your calendar!

Conversation about Actress Anna Cleveland, her children and their home, "Illahee" on Berrill Avenue, continues. A blog-reader has written with these reminiscences:

" I remember going with my mother to a tea party held on the lawn at the James residence-I think all ladies of vllage invited, a dressy affair. I also remember both Anna and Cleveland James, they had a nanny, called Nenny who chaperoned a group of little girls at a camp at Lake Moraine. Both Anna and Cleveland came over for a swim. Both older than I. I probably was about 13 when camping and 5 or 6 at time of tea. Tea was Probably about 1920 or 1921."

It didn't take long:

By mid-afternoon, yesterday, Missy Goodwin was back in touch with a cousin and classmate!
