LOST!


A "HELP" REQUEST FROM JACK BROUILLETTE.

"Due to my carelessness, I lost a

red glossy pocket folder


of DMV documents (vehicle titles, etc)

some where between 2301 Hanover Road near Shanley, down Grant Hill,
Lombard Rd, out to the Dugway in Clinton.


Although they can be replaced, there will be a nice finder fee if located and returned."

Thank you!"

The sky, yesterday afternoon, gave a different forecast:

"Red sun at night, sailor's delight ........"



Sunset from Brothertown Road.



Directly over my head, on California Road.

It was a mild day, and the sun shone on the little green apples on an old tree near the Pleasant Valley Grange.



The Tanners' home on Route 20 is all decorated, and ....


........... a gingerbread house and gingerbread men are delightful day or night at Dan Maine's woodworking shop on Madison Street!



I'm not a big fan of the new "LED" lights, but I do like this multi-colored combination on the shrubbery of a Putnam Street residence!



Also on Putnam Street, the Verdon family's Santa rides again AND when the house and yard's many lights are lit it's time to pull over to the curb, tune your radio to 87.9 FM and listen to the music. THEN the pattern of lights will make sense! What a fun thing they've done, synchronizing lights and music together!




**********************


I spent most of the day, when I should have been outdoors, staring at pixels!




But it's that season!

Tomorrow: a list of "things to do" that are coming soon!

HAVE A GREAT DAY, EVERYONE!
