I could add this to what I wrote last week.  I mentioned that we would be taking a family vacation of the eastern shore of Connecticut.We arrived today in a great beach house with lots of room.  This best part of this is just spending time together.As you can see grandson Max is enjoying it already. We have some beach time planned.  And next we will be boating on the Long Island Sound.  George Souto gave me some names of restaurants although we also brought plenty of food.

  Breast Cancer is a terrible disease, and a cure needs to be found as quickly as possible, which means money needs to be raise for research that is very expensive.  One of the ways we can all help in achieving this, is by supporting events like the 5th Annual Beach Jam for Breast Cancer, Westbrook, Ct Elks Lodge.   Through event like the 5th Annual Beach Jam for Breast Cancer, Westbrook, Ct Elks Lodge, money is raised which will hopefully lead to a cure.  Those who show up to contribute and participants in this event will be treated to excellent entertainment such as: Freeplay Crosseyed Cat Driven Tomorrow Just Started Rock Bottom Four Barrel Billy One Way Out Bob Giannotti, Del Perez, and DJ Lion (between sets) There have been a number of events held already this year to raise money ...

Westbrook CT Taxes are going down in 2011!  The town recently voted for a modest decrease in taxes for the coming year. The town was able to reduce taxes due to careful planning and budget management.  The town didn't have massive layoffs.  Services haven't been cut. The budget even increased slightly this year.  But the town was able to use a budget surplus from previous years to offset the budget increases.  This keeps home ownership in Westbrook affordable. The economy is hurting and many towns are struggling with tough budget decisions.  Often poor planning in previous years has let to large budget deficits.  Many towns saw a sharp rise in taxes.  Higher taxes makes home ownership more difficult, and pushes many out of their homes while hurting property values due to the increase in...
