I have a lot of fond memories from my early years at Bridge Street School where I learned to read and skip rope. But to be honest, a typical school day for me did include some sniffing of mimeos hot off the press and admiring their lavender ink while eating gobs of Elmer’s paste directly from the applicator.
On the afternoon of December 8, the photographer’s family in a Bramble Ridge condo off Bridge Street was super excited seeing these two bobcats in the backyard. They looked like a mother and her young.
As we hit the trails this time of year, we may have to dig deeper to find the beauty around us. Heavy snow has yet to fly, the songbirds with their lovely plumage and melodic songs have headed south, the leaves have fallen, and the woods are mostly quiet and still.
An amazing Farmers Market season finished on October 3. Many other markets chose to cancel this year or scale way back with either drive-thru markets or pre-order.
