IN THE MAIL
I've been hoping that someone would recognize one of the Hallowe'en Party-goers c. 1974, and Sheri Salm Brennan sent me an Email, yesterday, that read "It's Me!"
.... and here's a picture of both of them!
(Thanks, Sheri!)
*****************************
From Brenda Gates, President of the PTA at
the Memorial Park School, an Email
introducing a new, fun, PTA Fundraiser:
Check out "Fun Pasta," now!
******************
Here & There
Are you watching Matt Jurczak's pumpkin display grow?
Other Displays to see ...
At the Edick home on Brothertown Road, the entire yard is filled with home-crafted decorations ....
............ and there's barely a square foot of space left at the Frosts' on Route 315 across from California Road!
******************
Main Street Make-overs Continue.
Finishing touches are being put on the woodwork around the entryway at Main Street Liquors ....
......... and the West side of the Uptown Salon building has been painted. Now we know: it will be olive green.
The "eyebrows" above windows of the Gethel residence on Putnam Street have an attractive new "painted lady" effect that shows off the Victorian detailing.
***************
Fields and Roadsides
Milkweed pods have opened ......
... and even on gray days the berries of swamp-dwelling Black Alder bushes are bright.

The TWCNY Weather Forecast:
"Cool and Mainly Dry, Getting Cold!
We start with some lake effect showers and clouds. It will be a damp morning and a dry afternoon for most. Its cool but not cold to start and this afternoon most stay in the 40s to near low 50s.
We wait for a larger system to arrive for Halloween, this will bringing showers around or just after trick-or-treating. After the showers work through, much colder air arrives for the weekend in the 40s and even some spots in the upper 30s. "- In Memoriam -
