About a month ago while mowing my yard I noticed a strong smell of natural gas. Upon further investigation I noticed the gas riser coming up near the slab of my house was very rusted and corroded, actually to the point that gas was significantly leaking. Since it was after 5 and the city offices were closed I called 911 to report the leak. Within minutes several firemen and the city inspector showed up. All were very professional and very concerned with my situation. The city inspector along with the firemen agreed the leak needed to be fixed for our safety. I assumed it would be the next day but they said no, immediate action must be taken. The inspector called out the on call city crew who showed up and worked late into the night to mediate the risk of an explosion by plugging the pipe underground. I was so impressed with the professionalism and concern of all those involved from the Fire Chief, to the Firemen, the City Inspector and the City Crew that fixed the leak. Many of these people are my friends and neighbors who probably don’t get the recognition they deserve. So I would like to publicly say “thank you” to everyone who was involved in correcting this potentially dangerous situation in such a timely manner. It frightens me to think of the potential outcome if this dangerous issue was not addressed. Good job and thank you.
Read moreA couple of weeks ago, I was out shopping and lost my bracelet. I had worn it for almost 30 years and it had great sentimental value to me. I contacted all the places I had been and left my name and telephone number hoping some good samaritan would find and return. As I was wrapping presents last week, I found a receipt from the Silver Barn. On Saturday I thought I might as well check and dropped by and asked if they had found a gold bracelet. Cynthia, the owner was there and said yes, that they had knew it must have special meaning for someone and she reached down and held up my bracelet. From my reaction she could tell that she had found the owner. This is just another reason we should all shop local. If you haven’t been to the Silver Barn lately please go. We need business owners like Cynthia to stay in business during the pandemic.
