I was covering the village court for Keith and the case of the cooler driver that got so much attention.

No fireworks today, everything was put off until the end of July.

By the way, there were TONS of people at the sixth grade moving up last night. I ended up parking WAY down Potter and just missed a real downpour that came just as I went inside. The auditorium was packed and hot like an oven, despite the heat the entire grade did a great job with their song led by music teacher Brent Tuttle.

For anyone who didn’t notice the planned expansion of the medical clinic on North Street is well under way. The roof for the expansion is already on and it seems like the addition was just being framed up a few days ago.

For anyone in the mood to take a short ride tonight, Bridgett Bennett will be speaking at the Castleton Free Library about her experiences while volunteering with HIV orphans in Africa. A harrowing tale, she was in real danger while she was in country but is raising funds for a return trip late this fall. A delightful woman with many, many stories to tell – that kicks off at about 7 p.m.

More later including a big gift from a local club to the Little League…maybe tomorrow. It sure is sunny out.
