The Weather Forecast from TWCNY:
"Breezy & Mild with Showers, Colder Air is Coming.
A new system arrive with occasional showers developing today. It will be a breezy and mild day with highs ranging from the mid 50s to just above 60 degrees.
Friday will be windy and noticeably cooler with scattered showers. Highs will be in the 40s to near 50 degrees. Unsettled conditions will continue through the first half of the weekend and due to chillier highs in the low 40s Saturday, the forecast calls for some snow showers to mix in.
Dry weather and sunshine will build back in on Sunday with temperatures warming back into the 50s. Plenty of sunshine will stick around into early next week with highs remaining in the 50s. Temperatures will likely warm into the 60s out ahead of our next system that will eventually bring showers back to the forecast on Thursday."

From Walter (a.k.a. "Bart" or "Jr.") Bartlett, this photograph of himself taken on Veterans Day during his Patriot Guard Mission at the Geneseo Airport National War Museum. He wrote .....
"I wanted to purchase this replica small scale version of the ww2 Corsair fighter that Ed McManon, Johnny Carson's sidekick, flew. We also Honored Wallace Higgins, a Tuskegee Alabama airman who received the Gold Congressional medal of Honor. A two-fold day as it was his 90th Birthday."

From Jeff Reynolds, the Flying Librarian, who had spent quite an amount of time making (someone must have said) "quite a racket" flying above Waterville on Monday afternoon. He sent several of the photographs that he took, then, but this was my favorite because I could easily pick out the Library — and its new Croquet Court — and then see all the way north past the "Boston Bank Lot" on Sally Road to Hanover Hill. (Click to enlarge!)
(Thanks loads, Jeff!)

Views from my camera - at ground level!
It all began on Sunday afternoon when, with an assist from the ground crew and air traffic control, the Verdons' Reindeer pulled Santa's sleigh up, up, and flew into the air above Putnam Street.
Thanks to the mild weather, more and more Christmas decorations have appeared .......
............. on White Street ..............
............... Conger Avenue .......
.................... West Bacon Street .........
.............. and the DPW installed Christmas wreaths and garlands on Victorian lamp posts all the way from the Fire House to Stewart's.

There was activity at the former "Stinkers" / "Good Times" on Wednesday afternoon. Lights were on and the American Flag flew outside the door, but I couldn't find anyone there to talk with.
Maybe today!

FOR THE RECORD
Kristin Strohmeyer of Putnam Street was the first to identify the species of creature who was seen roaming Main Street in the company of a pretty young lady on Hallowe'en Eve......
