Possums, Our North American Marsupials

Around this time of year I can’t help but think of times spent in lecture halls back in those college days. One of my favorite professors was a tall drink of water, had Clark Kent glasses, a bald head and wrote in all capital letters on the board. During the honeymoon period I hung on his every word until half way through the semester when I decided to divert my energy towards enticing my dreamy lab partner into my inner circle. My hook was largely a collection of peasant blouses, hoop earrings, and huarache sandals coupled with a nonchalant attitude about schoolwork. I figured that combination screamed casual sophistication and soon we would be inseparable.

Parks & Rec News

I wanted to let you know how welcoming and passionate I have found the people of Suffield to be since I started as the Director of Parks and Recreation this past June. My first few mornings were filled with “Hellos” and “Good Mornings” outside of businesses, from people I had not met yet.
