I haven't shown you pictures of the pond from my living room window recently, but
I can't believe this is the last week of the Joe's Pond Ice-Out Contest! It's always fun to see the tickets come pouring in by mail - this is the first year West Danville's new postmaster, Dennis, has been on the job here, and already he's been a little overwhelmed by how stuffed our mailbox gets. I'm sure he has no idea how much mail he'll be handling from the contest. He's a good sport and we enjoy his constant good humor. It's really nice, too, that we get to visit with Diane Jeger every now and then since she's at the Cabot Post Office now!
We'll be picking up mail every afternoon from now through Saturday, so if you haven't gotten your tickets in, it's time to get it done so there will be a postmark on or before April 1. Anything that comes in postmarked after April 1 cannot be entered in the contest. Ticket sales stop at outlets at close of business and on-line at 11:59 p.m. on Saturday, April 1. Then we watch and wait for the ice to melt.
