Weathersfield News May 23, 2016 Nancy Nutile-McMenemy photosbynanci@comcast.net As Memorial Day approaches I hope we all remember why we have a day off. While most people get ready for the first weekend of summer with BBQs,  garden planting,  and a freedom from work day, some folks gather to remember all the service people who fought bravely for our country during many wars. During your long weekend, stop for a few minutes and reflect on the real reason why we have this day set aside and what the real price of freedom is. Last Wednesday, I was in the audience of "Good News From Around The World" a play written and performed by the folks at Zack's Place in Woodstock.

Weathersfield News May 18, 2016 Nancy Nutile-McMenemy photosbynanci@comcast.net Get out your calendars, there's a lot happening in Town over the next few weeks. You won't want to miss the Grand Opening of the ADA Accessible bathroom at the Weathersfield Proctor Library on Thursday May 26 at 5 p.m.. Rumors have it that there'll be some special cupcakes at the refreshment table. Another week filled with music and events. Wednesday, May 11, I had tickets to see Cage The Elephant at the Times Union Arena in Albany but the show got moved to the Palace Theatre. My great seats were turned into General Admission Balcony-REFUND PLEASE. Heard it was a great show, oh well, hopefully I'll catch them sometime.  Instead, I went to Concord NH to see an old friend perform a FREE show at the Concord City Auditorium . I've known Scott Kirby for years and really love his music. It's a laid back, small town, chill type of sound. More images from Sc
