A Postcard From Washington County
Homecoming week at Machias Memorial High School ended in a festive parade featuring students and alumni, led by Grand Marshal Jean Cole Bowles (center), Salutatorian of the Class of 1946. At her side are Homecoming King Mr. James Black and longtime Coach Cindy Moore-Rossi, who received her honorary Bulldog diploma on Sept. 28, making her the newest MMHS graduate at yesterday’s festivities.

By the time May rolls around, we are all well and truly finished with firewood – stacking it, hauling it, feeding it into the stove, hauling out ashes, and sweeping up after it. So no one in my family appreciates it when, in June, I announce we have to fill the living room woodbox one last time.
I just don’t like the way it looks empty.
