Nothing quite like people showing up for a program in a big way. Batteries recharged and hope restored at least for a day. We all laughed and enjoyed an old movie, all 100 of us. I couldn’t be happier! #publichistorylife #skystorian #classicmovie #smalltownlife

Every one of our little village’s 20+ emergency vehicles all rolled at once in full sirens. I thought for sure we were under attack.
It was just the high school wrestling team coming home with their state trophies.

No lie, me. I left, nobody else ever does. #SmallTownLife
The town was far enough north to enjoy #autumn colors without facing arduous winters. The younger generations were firmly entrenched in the tech-savvy third millennium, but the Landing retained much of its old-fashioned charm.

False Spring and Other Lies We Tell Ourselves in Fillmore By Glory Fink (An occasional dispatch from the moist underbelly of optimism.) Seed catalogs are hitting mailboxes, which means Fillmore has entered its most sacred season: Delulu Planning Season. People are circling tomatoes like they’re picking a soulmate. (“This one says heat tolerant. So he won’t leave me?”) We are all one glossy photo away from believing we will become the kind of person who labels herb jars. And then—because the universe loves a joke—Fillmore gets one (1) 78-degree day. False Spring #1 One 78-degree afternoon and suddenly every porch has folks in flip-flops and optimism. Lawn chairs dusted off and dragged onto the porch. Drinks sweating. Someone’s aunt is declaring, “Winter’s over!” like she’s giving a church testimonial. Baby, Winter heard you. Winter took that personally. Winter will be back with a vengeance. The Hardware Store: Temptation Altar Edition The hardware store has placed seed-starting trays and little peat pots right at the front like a temptation altar. You walk in for duct tape and come out holding twelve packets of zinnias and the moral conviction that you are a person with a plan. They’re not even being subtle about it. It’s merchandising. It’s psychological warfare. It’s “just one more seed packet” the way a casino is “just one more spin.” Substack now has an auto reader available to have it read the entire article to you for free
A snippet from the latest Fillmore News 💙📚
The full article includes: seed-catalog delusion, Wilfred’s seed underworld, diner “spring specials,” and a town PSA begging folks to stop trying to mulch fake trees.

Got woken up by loud banging in the middle of the night and thought someone was breaking into my house…
Turns out it was a herd of deer trying to get into the chicken feed 🤦♀️

I will never understand how volunteering at the local Bingo hall manages to keep so many of our local charities and community groups afloat.
Just who in the world is playing Bingo so much!?

Geoffrey Cannon was scolded and gifted a five year probation as the punishment for raping my friends 15-year-old daughter. WTF is wrong with the judicial system? Horrible crimes against children and the accompanying injustice isn't relegated to DC alone. #SmallTownLife #StandAgainstTyranny
This is a photo of an old wagon filled to the brim with an autumn harvest of pumpkins, squash, and fall flowers. The wagon is seated on a lawn in a residential area.
So often, on my road trips, I am greeted by the charm of small town living. Here, someone decked out an old wagon with the beauty of autumn flowers and harvest vegetables.
