I was driving in Patterson yesterday afternoon and passed by two developments, Cornwall Meadows and the cluster zoning development on Route 292 just west of the village. Both these developments are on cul de sacs, meaning there is only one way in and one way out. At the turn-off for each, cars were parked filled with parents waiting for the school bus to arrive so that the kids coming off could be driven back to their homes. For reasons too numerous to write out here this disturbs me to no end – and should you, too. From third grade on I was walking almost a mile to and from school each day, crossing Union Turnpike on the way.

Good Friday Morning,
It’s probably gonna snow. If the weather service report from this morning holds true, we’re looking at somewhere between 9 and 13 inches of snow by later tonight. This could cancel the Physical Services Committee meeting schedule for 1:30 this afternoon at Tilly Foster Farm.

Good Friday Morning,
I, for one, am a tad disappointed that the temps weren’t 2 or 3 degrees cooler over the past 36 hours. Had they been, we’d be looking at almost 30″ of snow and man, that would have been great! But alas, a man’s dreams were dashed by the moderating forces of . . . → Read More: News That Matters – December 12, 2008 – Things to do Edition

Good Monday Morning,
We had a tiny bit of snow yesterday and in response to that first visual blast of winter, highway crews across the county emptied the oceans of salt and left it . . . → Read More: News That Matters – December 8, 2008

Good Thursday Morning,
The new Yellow Book crop has grown out of the frozen ground again, the one plant that defies Nature’s winter sleep, isn’t there one day, but the next, is everywhere one looks.
You’ll see it scattered along every roadside and highway, its bright yellow petals enclosing a pistal of paler yellow . . . → Read More: News That Matters – December 4, 2008

PlanPutnam’s Annual Fund Drive: Day 4
Good Monday Morning!
There was a beautiful sunrise this morning. Air quality is supposed to be almost excellent, the sun will shine and this mid-fall day will be quite nice. If you can get outside at any time today, do so.
