Weathersfield News, July 3, 2013

What a roller coaster ride in the weather. It has been hard to plan anything with the unpredictable thunder storms.

Many 4th of July parties planned this week. Please be sure to keep your pets safe! The 5th of July is the busiest day of the year for animal shelters. Make sure your pets are inside... preferably in an inside room with no windows. Leave your pets home! Even the mellowest, best trained dog will bite.. especially in unfamiliar areas, bunches of kids running around, things banging and flashing in the sky.

The Weathersfield Town Office and Weathersfield Proctor Library will be closed on Thursday.

The battle of the weeds continue, but thanks to my granddaughter, Jayda, it's one less row of overwhelming... The best part was feeding the weeds to the chickens and pigs and seeing them so excited over our treats.

Our adopted daughter, Courtney, celebrated her 30th birthday was last week, so we had a surprise cookout for her this weekend. 30+ friends and family came! Did you know that a 3,500 gallon pool can hold 14 children at one time??? There was a few less inches of water in the pool today.

The weather forecast for the next four days does not look promising. 60% chance of rain and thunder/lightening. Friday and next weekend look promising. Hopefully with all this rain the plants will be growing like crazy when the sun comes and shines on them.

Everyone, please be safe with 4th of July activities. Even sparklers will case a very bad burn on little fingers. If you are drinking, don't drive. Enjoy time with family and friends and don't forget to thank the founding fathers for what they did for our country, so very long ago, in 1776, declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain.
