"ATTENTION ONE AND ALL"
This is Baleigh Alpaca reporting from our offices on Main Street. I'm happy to say the Colonel Bills Creek memorial bridge is officially open. It was a grand sight. As reported, 101 year old Ms. Lavinia Worthington from the Senior Center, originally from Walla Walla Washington, cut the ribbon. She drove her motorized scooter across followed by Mr. Mayor on a John Deere tractor, the South Canisteo marching band, the South Canisteo police, the fire department, the SC sanitation truck and a bi-centennial float. Hundreds of onlookers were at the chicken barbecue afterwards. On another note, today is National Dog Day. That loyal companion, protector and friend deserves a special day. My people have taken in several rescues, and it's the best feeling. Love 'em like family, you are to them. If you make a trip to see the new bridge, stop by the Alpaca Store and see the Mrs. fall displays. Baleigh out.
