What a great weekend!

It's Abby!

......... flashing one of her fabulous smiles to the hundreds who packed the Fire House, yesterday morning, for a Pancake Breakfast in her benefit.


I think the whole village was there ......


........ even the WCS Boys' Varsity Soccer Team!

Another gathering took place late in the afternoon at "Michael's" when parishioners of Grace Episcopal Church and members of the community came to say Goodbye to Byron and Hester Stuhlman who will leave Waterville at the end of the month on an Adventure in Retirement at Round Pond, Maine.

They barely had time to grab a bite .........


...... between handshakes and hugs and kind words from their many friends.

Next Sunday at 10:00, Bishop Gladstone "Skip" Adams (above r., talking with Rev. Ed Townsend) will celebrate the Holy Eucharist at the conclusion of Byon's ministry and the recognition of Ann Stillman as Priest-in-Charge at Grace Episcopal Church.

Outdoors ........ you don't have to go very far to find magnificent foliage!

Just drive a bit North of Daytonville Road on Route 12 .........

....... to see brilliant maples and scarlet sumac .........

......... or South on Mason Road where leaves of Swamp Maple look like confetti against Hemlock and Pine.

I took this picture during a shower on Saturday afternoon. Even then, the colors were grand!

Take a break; go for a ride; don't miss them!
