Sunrise Service

I want to thank the owner of the Sunrise Restaurant and the gentleman in the booth adjoining mine. I lost my cell phone between my seat and the wall in my booth. The bench had to be pulled out, but it is attached to the bench in the next booth. The gentleman stood up so the bench could be removed and my phone rescued. Again THANK YOU!

So Proud

So proud of our Cheshire firemen and volunteers for putting together the April 2nd Chicken BBQ Dinners. They cooked hundreds of chicken halves. It took some time to get this great number done and what a wonderful meal it was. Our little hamlet has many businesses –what a great place to live.

Pedestrians, especially in the dark

It's never safe to assume that, simply because pedestrians have the right-of-way, you can blindly walk across the road without looking both ways first. Especially in the dark, when you're wearing dark clothing, there are street lights and oncoming headlights shining in drivers' eyes, and you cross abruptly, causing drivers to have to slam on their brakes to avoid flattening you.

War-ravaged Cratered Parking Lot

In reference to the "unsafe conditions" at a certain Senior/Disabled complex Rant on 3/31/23: I think I know the referred to complex. I don't live there, I visit there, but am seriously considering stopping visiting there because of the pitiful condition of the parking lot for fear of costly damage to my car! The potholes aren't as large as basketballs. The potholes are as large as basketball backboards, which last I checked, measure 6 feet wide, and 3 1/2 feet high!

In store shoppers

Do you believe you’re the only one in the store? You don’t need to do your shopping and jogging at the same time. Jog outside. You come flying out a side aisle like the main aisle is empty, block an aisle while you scrutinize what you want, stop your cart while you read labels right next to another cart blocking everything. You block the deli case with your cart so nobody else can see the items or bring full shopping carts to the speed/self checkout, even if the sign says 20 or less. Courtesy for others is a thing of the past.
