Waterford

The day dawns muggy but not yet hot. That will happen in a few more hours when the sun gets high. The weekend was harsh, except for those who were on or in the river and at the many beautiful Maine beaches. Those of us at the Transfer Station were hot. But Sadie was with us and that made it easier.

No bears this week. Hopefully they have found enough berries now and do not need to raid backyards.

Condolences go out to the family of Raymond Bliss. Raymond passed last week.
