Graduation Day!

If you could have seen - or perhaps you did! - the hundreds of cars at the high school, filling every parkinglot and lining the roadway all the way to Madison Street, you'd understand why the rest of the village seemed to have been abandoned. A few lawnmowers were in use; here and there a four-footed friend had his person out for a walk on a leash, and there were only eight cars in the Foodking parkinglot.



At the Fire House, an engine was being polished;




a few youngsters came careening up to the new bike rack at the library and raced inside,










and a thoughtful lady deadheaded bloom on one of the Garden Club "tubs."















Outside the village, everything was equally quiet save for a family of Canada Geese who were excitedly exploring the field across Madison Street from their home on the pond behind Scott Moon's.

It's sunny, but hazy and, obviously, we're feeling lazy! There are a number of productive activities that could be undertaken but - on the other hand - it's Saturday! And isn't "lazy" what Saturdays are all about?
