Out and About in Our Town



The gazebo on the village green.

So nice to sit in its shade on a hot, sunny day

 

The bark of the old willow tree
outside my front window

The old town jail,  built in 1890
and restored in 2001

 

Winter trees, with their bare and twisted branches.
There is a special quality about them that we
don't always notice in summer.

The snow covered and frozen lake.
We 'lost' the lake in last summer's drought, we miss it dearly.
The fishing contest has been canceled, and we no longer have
fireworks on the 4th July as it's too dry and dangerous.

But we have a committee of fund raisers and volunteers,
working hard to restore the lake to its former glory.
