McCaffery, Bates in EHS spotlightTavian McCaffery is a senior at EHS. His family members are his Mom, Dad, brother, Gratian, and his sister Lavinia. His favorite book that he would recommend is “I’m Praying Hard For You, Love Letters to a Death Camp: The WWII Ordeal of Bill and Jo Brenner,” written by Linda McCaffery (his grandma). His favorite quote is, “If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl but whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward” - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.May 7, 2025 -
There’s always room for tomatoesNothing beats the flavor of fresh-from-the-garden tomatoes. Keep them close at hand by growing one or more in containers on your patio, balcony, or front steps.May 2, 2025 -
Birds offer plenty to seeThey are finally showing up! This is the point in the migration that I enjoy the most – when some of the less-seen birds make their appearance. The obvious ducks, geese, and sandhill cranes have come and gone, except for the small group of Ross’s geese that are still staggering around the dikes. The Great Blue herons are still faking invisibility standing in the cat tails peering out like they are trying to make eye contact. The Snowy and Great egrets are here. I am always fascinated by the White-faced Ibis and their antics. They exist for crowd activity! There are not any significant numbers of the sandpiper family, but a few are doing the Willie Nelson “On the Road Again” dance and give us an occasional peek.May 8, 2025
