Friday!

52.5 degrees at 5:00 A.M. and still VERY dark out!

Don't forget to take out the GARBAGE!

The "Smile for the Day" will be on YOUR face and will brighten the morning when you compare these two photographs: the upper taken on June 22nd, and the lower on September 6th. (Click photos to enlarge!)





So much paving was done, yesterday, that I don't know how much is left for today. At around 4:00 P.M. the ride from Sangerfield to the Fire House was SM-O-O-O-O-TH, all the way. It was smooth around the Park; smooth merging onto Stafford Avenue and Putnam Street and Babbott Avenue. The White Street corner was being paved as was the top of Buell Avenue.

If there is any paving left to be done, today, it will probably be the parking lanes on W. Main Street.

And, at any rate, the weather will be good.

Neither the Yankees nor the Redsox played, last night, but this evening NY will be at Baltimore at 7:05 and Boston in KC at 7:05.



Don't forget that some first-rate sporting events can be seen close-by: WCS Sports.

And for those readers who are planning 'way ahead, tickets to see the Harlem Globetrotters at the Utica Auditorium on February 8, 2007, go on sale today!

OR - plan around events on the Broadway Theater League schedule or that of the Great Artists Series. The first performance is on September 29th: don't wait!

Where was that great "Welcome!" sign with the schoolbus on it? At the Truitt residence on Babbott Avenue!
Also on Babbott, a magnificent hydrangea, showing a perfect Fall tinge of pink.



Can anyone tell me the real name of this "bamboo"? It can be a terrible nuisance, but when it finally blooms, it really is quite pretty.
