Check out the offerings at Dabblers, Barefoot Books, the library, and nature, for ways to work off the holiday doldrums.
Hello, fellow Concordians, and welcome to the last day before either the shortest day of the year ... or the last day of ever. It would really be a shame to have our last ever day also be the shortest, but I’m feeling pretty confident that all the work I put into baking holiday treats won’t be for naught. The good news is, if we’re still here on Saturday, the days start getting longer, and that’s a happy thought. Of course, this also means a lot of days to fill next week, after the big holiday is over – everyone’s bloated with all that good food, kids are bouncing around from the letdown of present rush, the relatives that came to visit are starting to get antsy.

Concord Library premieres a new program for sharing seeds, and hosts another Fowler Friday for middle schoolers.
Hey, fun friends, welcome to Monday! For those of you who have today off in honor of Veterans Day, enjoy the lovely weather – it’s a little gift before easing back into the chill of autumn. And if you DON’T have today off, well, at least make time to take a break midday and get outside to bask in the sunshine. It’s all so fleeting. If you’ve been reading this column for any length of time, you’ve probably realized what a fan I am of our local library.
