Did I mention the big trees? The red 'x' is my house). The broken trees took out most of the power lines down there, s...

Monday, June 2, 2008. Milton Farmers' Market: Week 3. Mmmm berries. and meat. After speaking with Ann, I spoke to a couple of other people and now have a slightly better idea of what's going on with changes to the policy regarding spaces for stores at the Farmers' Market.

Thank you for bringing this mis-information to our attention. The Milton Downtown BIA Bo...

http://sprawlville.blogspot.com/2009/12/olympic-torch-comes-to-milton.html
Saturday, December 19, 2009. The Olympic Torch Comes to Milton! Today was the big day! Your faithful reporter actually managed to get up at gawdawful in the morning and walk up to Main Street in the freezing cold just to bring you this footage. I hope you appreciate it. Seriously, it was a lot of fun and very exciting. I even got to sing Christmas carols and a rousing rendition of 'O Canada' with the Milton Choristers. Thanks for the blog and video. Shows what a great turnout it was all along the route.
