A couple of news items:

You may be interested that the Danville Animal Hospital has been sold by Dr. Stan and Susan Pekala to Dr. Lisa Whitney who has been with the office for four years. It's hard to believe that the Pekalas have operated the animal hospital in Danville for 34 years! Dr. Whitney will officially take over the practice in February, and told the Caledonian Record that she will not be changing anything right away.

Another item in the Business Watch today is that there is an Ocean States Big Lots store definitely coming to St. Johnsbury. They are hiring now, so the opening must be soon. That will be a boost for the Green Mountain Mall - with the new Penny's store, things are certainly looking better there.
