Wednesday morning

Recyclables Day!

The morning observation: "starry-clear and 48 degrees."

New mail: in addition to Gary Tuttle's letter and picture from Florida, the blogger has a nice letter from John Clinton Peck. He says that he left Waterville about 16 years ago and, having spent fifteen years in the Pocanos, is now in Estero, Florida. He's been reconnecting with old friends here, and having stopped for a visit in October, plans to do so again.

Delores McManus Wines writes from Latham, New York, expressing fond memories of the village and her friends and appreciation for the blog.

A rather anonymous note simply says "fantastic!"

And, just to make sure that no one is worrying that Chris Desany and his family missed out on Thanksgiving , while the rest of the family was in Florida, he and Jessica, Nate and little Sam were all celebrating the day with the Falks of Putnam Street.
