• Gilead

    Gilead I always have mixed feelings about the fall season. I like the cooler weather and the colors of the autumn leaves, but I do not enjoy the fact that every night it gets darker a little earlier. My brother, Steve McLain, arrived early Saturday to help set up for the annual meet... xx

  • West Paris

    West Paris Cool summer weather continues. Every time I go out 219 to Route 26 at Trap Corner the traffic gets thicker. There is usually a wait for several cars. Many speed over the route to the village. The motorcycles are especially noisy. This quiet little town is no longer quiet. ... xx

We have had to do some adjustments to our well because the water was so low, spittering and sputtering air rather than our usual abundance of H2O. We are now on the upswing of the whole mess and I am hoping to no... xx
  • Albany

    Albany Greetings and hello from Albany Township. The cooler weather has gotten here, that is for sure. We saw it go down to 37 degrees the other night. We went and visited Dyana last week. It was nice seeing her apartment and meeting her roommates. She's in her senior year of colle... xx
  • Waterford

    Waterford It is fall now and the weather has definitely changed. We actually got our “new” wood stove in and ran it to take the chill off. We shall see how good it works to keep the house warm. Since it is in the cellar, I have some doubts. Hopefully I will be proven wrong. In ... xx
  • Mason

    Mason Mona and I returned home last Saturday evening and are busy trying to catch up on everything we let slide since August. Snuffy has kept his eye on the truck ever since we got back. He sleeps beside it at night and lies in the shade by it during the day. He doesn’t want to miss ... xx
