South Valley

Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers! The past week has been rather cool, hasn’t it, but at least we’ve received some much-needed rain. ....more>>

  • Hawthorn Hill
    There is a lot of talk about change these days. We hear it from presidential candidates and we read about it in the papers and hear about it on radio.
  • Longfellow, across the years
    Thanks, friends, for your
    reactions to my recent column
    on learning language.
  • Weather watch
    During the first week of May, temperatures averaged near normal. Temperatures averaged slightly below normal during the first four days, then above normal the next three days.
  • In these otsego hills
    Someone once said to us that we must spend a great deal of time each week writing this column. We took that as a compliment as it seemed to indicate, at least to that reader, that we spent a great deal of time each week on the column. If the truth be told, we tend to think that is not the case. Granted, some columns fairly seem to write themselves.
  • Weather watch
    April was an unusually sunny month in our area, with 13 brilliantly sunny days, and 26 out of 30 days were sunny or partly sunny. Precipitation was about two-thirds of normal, and with temperatures around six degrees above normal, it was one of the warmest Aprils on record.
  • South Valley
    Our spring birds are continuing to arrive, as I was surprised to see the early arrival of our brown thrasher on April 22. We don’t usually see him until toward the end of May. I was even further surprised to spot two of them as I usually only see one each year.
  • Hawthorn Hill
    Two days ago, my granddaughter Isadora and I spent a lovely hour planting her garden — her first. It is just down the hill from her birth tree, planted on the occasion of her birth almost four Septembers ago. We were out “perusing” the gardens together this morning and, of course, had to check her garden first to see if anything had popped up out of the ground.
  • A Gift of Tongues ...
    Jim Atwell is taking a week off from writing his column for the Crier. Therefore, we are running one of his personal favorites.
  • In These Otsego Hills
    Our recent trip to the Midwest has, once again, confirmed our thought that spending time away from home just makes it that much more difficult for us to keep track of time.
