Professionalism of responders exemplary

Today I became one of them. In fact, so did my wife. We have joined the ranks of those many, many people who over the years have had good reason to praise Harpswell Neck Fire and Rescue. The day started off innocently enough but rapidly deteriorated as the carbon monoxide alarm went off.

After doing all the common things informed by denial, I contacted the chief, who came right over. He measured the air and found us to be in danger. He called for a fan to evacuate the dangerous gas from our home. I called a furnace service to clean and recalibrate the culprit that grumbles in our crawl space.

The professionalism, thoroughness and kindness of the responders was exemplary. We are happy to join the chorus that sings their praises.

Rev. Dr. Douglas Nielsen, Basin Point

Who are we to judge?

I'm not sure what to make of your August article looking at the legacy of the Skolfield family and its "ties to slave economy." The article seems to suggest that we would all do well to "reexamine" this family and its legacy in the light of "new research."

Why another trail?

From Tracy Johnson Colby: Harpswell has excellent outdoor opportunities for hikers, bird-watchers and those who prefer a quiet beach. Why do we need another trail?
