We saw some of the effects of winter as we walked on W. Shore Road today. The beavers had been busy in the brook that runs between the Hamiltons and the Dimick/Brown cottage. Further up the road, Helen Morrisson's mailbox is still tilted skyward, a victim of the snowplow; and her neighbors, Don and Mary Encarnacion, had to remove a tree after one of the storms.


















Some folks were out and about, tractors were humming at the Randalls, someone put their pontoon boat into the water this afternoon, and some other guy was enjoying fishing. We saw Jay Chatot out with his bike - he said he was happy the mud has dried up. He was doing the loop up W. Shore Rd. to Brickett's Crossing where he gets onto the railroad bed to come down the east shore to West Danville. Jay said it makes a good trip for him on his bike.

Today Jenny Larrabee was married in the West Danville church to James Rafuse. We wish the newlyweds many years of joy together. Having watched Jenny grow up at Hastings Store, we know what a special young woman she is. I know Jane and Garey are very proud of her. I'm sure she was a beautiful bride.
