Thursday

It's Garbage Day!

And it's a wonderfully chilly 50 degrees!

WE'RE BACK TO NORMAL!

WKTV's forecast: "Thursday will start off and finish with sunshine. It should be a few degrees warmer than what we saw on Wednesday, but humidity will stay low. Highs will be in the low 80s. Things become more summer like on Friday and Saturday. More humidity will move in, along with warmer temperatures (although both will remain lower than what we saw earlier this week). Friday could again see a run toward 90 degrees. There is a chance of storms Friday afternoon, of the hit or miss variety. A better chance of storms will occur Saturday as another cold front moves through. In fact, storms could be widespread (but less severe than Tuesday) on Saturday afternoon."

The heat wave finally "broke," yesterday, but on Tuesday - when the mercury was reaching for the 100 mark - I came upon Bill Vetter's painting crew at work on the corner of Stafford and W. Bacon. Right after that, I found Martha Smith, in Foodking, pushing a buggy filled with all sorts of cold drinks for the painters!

The Hop Vines at St. Bernard's seem to grow a foot a day!

I believe that all of the new replacement trees and shrubs along Sanger Avenue and Rt. 12 have now been planted.

The Memorial Bandstand Fund has raised just about $70,000.00.
Our original goal was $90,000.00, but in view of increasing costs of
nearly everything, $100,000.00 might be more realistic.

Donations in any amount will be greatly appreciated!

A blog-reader in Florida writes: "WOW! We are still holding at $3.95 in 'downtown' Donnellon," (adding that "there is no 'uptown!' ")

Another reader reports $4.14 west of Boston.
