It's also Recyclables Day!

It's 60 degrees, and WKTV predicts:

• Today: Becoming mostly sunny and much warmer. High in the mid 80s.
• Tonight: Mainly clear, warm and humid. Areas of fog likely. Low in the mid 60s.
• Friday: A mix of sun and clouds. Hazy, hot and humid. Near record warmth. High: 91, Low: 66
• Saturday: A mix of sun and clouds, warm and humid. Afternoon thunderstorms possible. High: 85, Low: 61

Yes! We certainly do need rain!

Yesterday I saw a bean picker in a field next to Route 12 at Daytonville Road.

One truck-load of beans looked pretty full, already.

The blog's late, this morning, because I've been hunting for these two pictures, taken (the notes say) by Dante Tranquille for the O-D back in the late 1950s.

My, how times change!

And looking ahead .....

I spotted Dan Maine and he spotted me just as he was finishing a new railing on the balcony at the corner of Stafford and W. Bacon.

Suzette's put a new Fall-colored wreath on her Madison Street door.

Fr. Tom's been growing his doorway decorations!


There's even a nice flowerbed near the entrance to the Waterville Cemetery.

Of some local interest:

If you loved going to "Kitty's on the Canal" for the setting, Bob Esche's new restaurant, "Aqua Vino" opened yesterday!

Also from WKTV: The Oneida Nation will NOT have a liquor license in time for the big PGA event.

Have a good day, everyone!
