Monday

It's Garbage Day!

WE'RE BACK ONLINE!

A huge "outage" prevented thousands of Fontier wireless customers from carrying on "life as usual" for nearly 36 hours. For those of us who were actually trying to contact colleagues and get some "work" done, it seemed even longer!

Here's one thing I wanted to do, yesterday:
DALE MESZLER!

*****


This morning it's 59 degrees; no precipitation.

We had two or three very heavy rainstorms, yesterday, but not until AFTER the "Boilermaker."

You can check your - or your friend's - running time HERE
and find plenty of photos at the O-D.

There's plenty of Boilermaker coverage at WKTV

as well as their brief, but pleasant, Weather Forecast:

"Sunshine is expected to return, and temperatures will warm up to the low to mid 70s. Should be a nice one to start out the work week. The heat and humidity will gradually return as we head into the week."



LOOKING AHEAD

Next Weekend is "Firemen's Field Days!"

It all starts with a Kiddie Parade - and the midway opens - at 6:30 on Friday.

(I'll give a full schedule tomorrow.)

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

Also next weekend:

A Bible study group from SouthGate Ministries is cooking! With the money raised, they'll send a few children to Christian camp.

Swamp Milkweek is blooming along Loomis Road


Purple Loosestrife in damp ditches and - here - at the Utica Marsh.

I have a heap of "real" work and writing to do, today, so I'll just say -

"Have a Great Day, Everyone."

See you tomorrow!
