Following an informational meeting on Nov. 15, the Lincoln County Budget Advisory Committee’s work is complete and the county commissioners have until Dec. 17 to approve the budget for fiscal year 2013.
Do What Is Best
I was appalled by the comment made by the Lincoln County Republican Committee Chairperson Earl Inman in the Nov. 15 edition of the newspaper. (“New landscape for Lincoln County Republicans,” Page 1)
THANKSGIVING
Is it just us or does it seems like these weeks are rushing by with a dizzying speed?
THE NEXT DAY
It’s unfortunate this national Election Day falls so late in the month of November that it has seemingly all but overshadowed Veterans’ Day this year.
We Owe Them Everything
Veterans’ Day is this coming Sunday, Nov. 11 and it’s a chance to remind all your readers how much we owe to veterans who served, died and those now serving around the world in defense of our country.
A Tip Of The Cap
Many of us routinely engage in recreational carping about Central Maine Power: service; it’s erratic, costs too much, or, in the case of our neighborhood last summer, they left an ungodly mess behind when cutting and trimming trees that imperiled their power lines.
A SAY
We are reminded of a passage from David Bradley’s 1981 novel, “The Chaneysville Incident,” as we look ahead to next week’s election.
Go
I went to the Lincoln Theater production of “Harvey” this past weekend and loved it. The humor, the timing, the acting, the set was superb. I urge every one to go!
Demolishing Damariscotta Mills
This week, an out-of-state real estate buyer submitted an application to demolish a historic 1730s cape that is a key part of the Damariscotta Mills landscape, and more importantly, the village’s amazing history. The application submittal means that the clock is now ticking, and they’re getting the wrecking ball ready to raze the lovely old home formerly owned and loved by the late Connie Curley, who passed away last week.
A CHOICE BETWEEN TWO RIGHTS
As we go to press we await word on whether two local races for the state legislature will go to a recount.
How Fortunate We Are
We cannot begin to express our great appreciation for the many ways in which our families, friends, associates and community have supported us through Gil’s injury. Lincoln County Communications and 911, the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office, the Maine Warden Service, the Maine State Police, Bristol Fire and Rescue and CLC Ambulance all teamed up to care for Gil and get him to help.
Elder Appreciation
A great big thank you to everyone who made it possible for the wonderful time we seniors enjoyed on Saturday at the Boothbay school.
YET ONE MORE REASON
There was a moment at the end of the final presidential debate this past Monday, when the two candidates are on stage with their families, shaking hands and engaging in small talk.
Laying The Precedents For Much More
To those who have been to the town hearings or read the front page of The Lincoln County News concerning the upcoming vote.
