Town Talk

Town Talk would like to thank everyone who donated to our “new scarecrow” campaign. We have used our scarecrows on Main Street for several years. They have been resewn, safety pinned, stapled and much more. We have certainly gotten our money’s worth out of them, but it is now time to replace them.

Impatient drivers can really be unnerving. Those that irritate me the most are the motorists who ignore travclaws while they are showing their impatience.I was driving down a two-lane street the other day that now has a 35-mile per hour speed limit. It had been 40 miles per hour.

Beautiful time

Fall is such a great time of year. It’s one of my favorites for several reasons.It’s starting to get a little cooler and the leaves usually begin falling at this time of the year.Depending on how cool it gets and how quickly that is will determine somewhat how much the trees shed their leaves.

Lucky

In this crazy world we live in these days, it’s really easy to get caught up in everything that surrounds us. If we lose focus, it can give us a negative outlook on life and draw us away from all the positives there are.Don’t know about you, but I find myself in a funk sometimes.
