It's Recyclables Day!
It's 37.6 degrees at 6 o'clock, and WKTV predicts that "once that fog dissipates, sun and clouds will develop. It really should turn out to be a nice, but cool day. Highs will be in the mid to upper 40s."
As of late yesterday, flooding has forced the closure of several roads in Oneida County, sheriffs’ dispatchers said.
- • Route 5 remains closed between Limberlost Road and State Route 233.
- • River Street in Oriskany is closed.
- • Route 49 is closed between Drive 36 and Vienna
From today's O-D: "Spitzer Appoints McNamara DA" and in yesterday's issue, "Skidmore College's Rob Hutchison (Waterville) had five hits in a doubleheader split with Drew University. He was 3 for 3 in an 8-6 win and he had a double, triple and two RBIs in a 9-8, eight-inning loss. Hutchison also had two RBIs in wins over Colby-Sawyer and Framingham State. After 12 games, Skidmore was 4-8 and Hutchison was batting .324 with seven RBIs and a team-high nine stolen bases in nine attempts."

I headed uptown fairly early, yesterday morning, all set to take pictures - as promised - of the litter along Main Street but there was none! Cigarette butts and chipped granite were all gone, because ......
the Sweeper got there first!
The Home Shoppe at 9:00 a.m. ..............
...... and around 4:00 P.M.
The Treens saw two Pileated Woodpeckers in front of their residence on Route 315, a few days ago.
More seagulls? Snow Geese, more likely, next to Post Street South of Clinton.
First sign of "Skunk's Cabbages" - on Route 315 just South of Bogan and Sally Roads.
What a strange plant! Good for nothing, that I know of, besides looking at and saying:
"It's Spring!"
We'll watch this for a few days, however, and hope that it's as beautiful as I think it will be.
