About Town Dec. 20, 2012

A sad week with twenty children and six adults shot in an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut. What is this world coming to? Bless them all, Lord!
Only one week until Christmas. May it bring us peace and safety. Will we get some snow, which is needed badly? Some snow or rain, to make the grass green. Have a safe and happy holiday!

Two week until Christmas. The goal is to shop at home, which raises the town’s sales tax, which helps “up” our town, which is good for all!
It was a cold weekend (10 degrees here and 2 degrees out South at Bill Martin’s)! B-r-r-r.

BOT Rejects Budget

By Joseph Lekarczyk
In the interest of full disclosure, let it be known that the author of this article is married to the Mayor.
