Carbon emissions and dark skies

I would like to thank the town of Harpswell for its efforts to reduce its carbon emissions. A thank you to all the people involved who helped make this possible. Also, thank you for keeping our night skies dark for all of us to enjoy!

City Folks

The folks who live in the city

Never see a star.

They look at each other in

Bewilderment

And wonder what they are.

They never see the first star

Of the evening

To make a wish upon.

They never see the twinkling

In the heavens

From darkness until dawn.

It seems to me a pity

That they miss such

A wondrous sight.

But when you live in the city

There is never darkness in the night.

Carol Bibber, Harpswell Neck

Thank you to horse helpers

We'd like to extend a huge thank you to Animal Control Officer Jim Bebarski and all the law enforcement officers, friends and neighbors, some known to us and some not known, who helped round up our horses when they decided to make a break for it very early in the morning on March 5.

Disappointment and disbelief

I read the article "Longtime Orr's librarian out as board pursues new vision" with deep disappointment and disbelief. The Orr's Island Library has become the Harpswell institution I love most in the five years I have lived here.
