At Home in the Huddle 2011

It's 28 degrees and clear at 6:30 a.m.


*******

Although many Eastern States received great quantities of snow, on Saturday, and thousands of residents are still without power, not a single flake fell in Waterville.

WKTV predicts that: "Pleasant weather from yesterday looks to continue today. A few extra clouds arrive this afternoon, otherwise partly sunny with highs in the lower 50s. Weather remains dry for the trick or treaters tonight. As usual, it will be jacket weather. Temperatures this evening fall down into the 40s. "

If it stays clear, VFR will be followed evening.

(Visual flight rules (VFR) are a set of regulations which allow a pilot to operate an aircraft in weather conditions generally clear enough to allow the pilot to see.)

TRICK OR TREAT RULES

If there were an award for the First Snowmen of the Season, the winners would be the Toussaints, on Sanger Avenue! I also saw a Snow Witch in front of Margie Wilson's home, on Osborn Avenue, but missed a daylight photo op.

IN THE MAIL

Les Risley relayed to me the next two pictures of Gil Condon's car, which he usually parks underneath the tree but which he had the foresight to move before the weight of the snow felled part of the tree! (Good save!)

(I think Gil lives near Philadelphia.)

Do you know where your pets are?

A resident of Sangerfield, who lives near "Michael's," wrote to me on Saturday saying that she had two wayfaring dogs staying in her yard. They seemed wary of her, but both had collars. One is a brown pug-looking one, the other is a young beagle. If they're yours, send me an E-note with your phone number and I'll forward it to her.

Frosty Friday

Library Director Jeff Reynolds made a couple of stops on his Friday morning commute to take pictures of this sparkly country view with fresh snow .............

............... and then the bright moss on trunks of maple trees on Osborn Avenue.

Little bits of new snow clung to an ornamental crabapple tree in the Library garden ..........

......................... while, inside the building, more timely subjects were on display.

Mary Campbell sent me this beautiful photograph of her daughter Joanne, whose marriage to Mark Thompson took place at the Adirondack Community Church in Lake Placid, and was followed by a reception at the Lake Placid Golf Club.
