Monday Morning!



Village Board Meeting this evening at 7:00 at the Municipal Hall.


It's just 30 degrees at 6:15, but consider wearing gloves when you

Put the Garbage Out!

The weather observer says it's "chilly with frozen condensation."
(In other words, there's ice on the porch railings.)



Gary Orendorff wrote, yesterday, that he has a rain gauge at his home in Stockwell that he empties every Sunday morning: last week's total rainfall in that community, south of Waterville, was 4 (four) inches!





Have you seen the sign at the Waterville Car Wash?

Mary Campbell sent that picture and this one, too, saying, "We had a wonderful wedding yesterday!"



Sean Campbell, son of Joel and Mary Campbell of Waterville was married on Saturday to Elizabeth Henry, daughter of Richard and Linda Henry of Rome NY. The two had met while attending Geneseo College. The Wedding took place at St. John the Baptist Church in Rome and the Reception was held at Hotel Utica.

I don't remember seeing as many cars on Main Street as there were, yesterday afternoon, since there was a Pendleton Sale at McLaughlin's! Between Morgan's Hardware, Stinkers Tavern and Michael's Fine Food & Spirits, there was not a parking spot to be had! That's GRAND!!

Other than that quick ride through the village (still looking for lights to appear in the Park!) I spent the day figuring out how - and then actually adding a new "link" to this page. (It wasn't adding the link that was hard; it was managing everything at the other end of the line!)

Click on "Heaps of History"

Alot of readers enjoy the bits of history that I add, now and then. For most of those we can thank Dick Brown who, besides knowing how to fly airplanes, can type so fast that smoke seems to come out of the keyboard! Over the past twenty years - or since he bought his first computer - he has transcribed all sorts and hundreds of pages of one-of-a-kind historical writings. Many of these are on the Midyork page called "Archives" (that you can also link to in the left-hand column) but there are still heaps more in our computers. I'll keep adding to this new online collection, a few items at a time, as soon as my eyeballs recover from yesterday's exercise!
