Tuesday morning

67 degrees, and it's been raining just about all night. Not a torrential sort of rain, but steady enough to make sure that the new sod in the village and everything else won't need any more water for the next seven days when predictions for at least four of those days are calling for "sunny" weather!

WKTV News Channel 2's forecast begins: "Dreary followed by Delightful!"
Today: Rain...through midafternoon... then scattered showers. High 65.
Tonight: Mostly cloudy early. Partly cloudy. Low 55.
Wednesday: Partly sunny. High in the low 70's.
Thursday: Partly to mostly sunny. High in the mid 70's.
Friday: Mostly sunny. Some increase in cloudiness late. High in the mid 70's.
Saturday: A chance of rain. High in the low 70's.
Sunday: A chance of rain. High in the low 70's.
Monday: Partly sunny. High in the mid to upper 70's.

Windmills are in the news, again, with "Spring Farm Cares'" proposal to put up three wind turbines on their property upsetting their neighbors.

About the new sod: several people have wondered what grass seed is used and an equal number hazzard a guess (which is just that, but a reasonable one!) that it is Batavia Bluegrass.

With Manny Ramirez nursing leg injuries and David Ortiz heading back to Boston with an irregular heartbeat, the news on the field wasn't any better as the Red Sox lost to the Athletics, 9-0, on Monday night.
