It's Garbage Day

28 degrees and clear at 6:00 a.m.

From WKTV:  "Warmer weather will finally arrive here as we head into the week.  For today, sunshine gives way to a few afternoon clouds.  Highs in the low 60s.  Less windy compared to the weekend too!

Clouds with rain arrives tonight.  Lows in the mid 40s.

Clouds with showers early tomorrow, followed by some sunshine.  Highs in the mid 60s.  Warmer weather still by Wednesday and Thursday, with highs in the mid to upper 70s.  The chance for an isolated thunderstorm both days. 

Showers and thunderstorms on Friday with drier weather by the weekend.

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

 Yesterday was bright and sunny, but the high was only around 45 degrees. 


One of my favorite views.

(It's a large file and makes great "wallpaper.")


I think that it's been too chilly for Morels to grow, but I've been told that the "Fiddleheads" are especially fine.

 

May Apple leaves have been unfurlurling like little umbrellas.

Apple Blossoms everywhere!


Watch for the ornamental Crabapple trees at the point of the Park to bloom!

(Does anyone know when the four trees were planted and whether or not they were "memorial" trees?)

"Growing" on more and more front lawns: 


There are more and more Colleen Emerson signs and, now,  many new signs placed by - or on behalf of - write-in candidate Jamie Decker.

IN THE MAIL

A note from Joe DeVecchio, who lives in Scottsdale, Arizona, and was "visiting" Waterville by way of Google Earth.......

 


He pointed out to me that there are NEW views of the Village on Google Earth and that now you can see the Memorial Bandstand in the Park.





I spent quite a while enjoying the sky-eye view of the village, too, and was delighted to see what the Library and its Gardens look like!
 

The photograph shows the solar panels, on the side lawn, but is not recent enough to indicate that the construction of a new building, quite near them, is under way.




Rotarian-carpenters - including Library Director Jeff Reynolds -  were on site Saturday afternoon  putting the beams in place.


(I'm sure that even though there has been no "formal" announcement, a great many people who live nearby know what the building will be used for.  I'll wait until the Library gives me the go-ahead to tell you!)
