VALERIE SCHENK**************************************
It's Valentine's Day!
An early 20th century Valentine card.
An actual "card" seen at the Landis Farm on Shanley Road.
******
The parking lot at CVS was full, yesterday afternoon, with shoppers crowding the aisles buying Valentine's Day cards and boxes of candy!

At Merri-Rose Florist on West Main Street ............
..... Aaron Cornish was waiting for his mother, Diane, the owner of the shop, to finish another of the "hundreds" of arrangements and bouquets ordered for Valentine's Day delivery.
(I wish that I could "blog" the real sight and scent of all of the beautiful flowers!)

Early yesterday morning the whole world - at least around Waterville - was nice and white, but twelve hours later, thanks to bright sunshine all afternoon .........
........... everything looked much as it had the day before.

Every now and then people ask me what sort of camera I use for blog photos.

Every now and then people ask me what sort of camera I use for blog photos.
My digital camera, an Olympus Camedia C-2040 zoom, is ten years and thousands of pictures old today. In those ten years, there have been loads of new models developed and now digital photographs can be taken, downloaded and sent by many different devices. I like this old camera so much, however, that I've picked up two "spares" on Ebay. There are two more listed there, now, ranging in price from $7.99 to $45! Click the image to learn more.
