monday evening

It was another beauiful day, Monday, and
the temperature at 5:00 p.m. was 65 degrees.

From WKTV: "A cloudy, wet start to Tuesday. Rain showers come to an end by the afternoon with highs in the mid to upper 60s. Dry weather returns on Wednseday with some sunshine. Highs in the 70s.

Unsettled weather returns by Thursday and looks to last into the first half of the weekend. Scattered showers with highs in the upper 60s to 70."

Three very unusual photographic views of Waterville, taken last Saturday
by Jody Barnes!

Thanks loads, Jody!

Several not-so-unusual photographic views taken on Monday by the blogger.

*Note: Blogspot has developed a new method of displaying blogged photographs.
When you "click" on an image to enlarge it, a "slide show" display and dark background appears.
I don't like it, but there doesn't seem to be anything I can do about it!

The largest of the barns at the original Barton Family Homestead on Fuess-Cleary Road - probably built around 1800 if not a bit before - has fallen or been taken down.

I'll miss it!

More tomorrow, perhaps, or .... whenever!
