Some thoughts as autumn marches by: We have loved being surrounded by the fabulous fall colors, no matter how muted or brilliant the foliage season may have been.

According to Friends of Waterbury Reservoir board member Mike Bard, there are even reports of plentiful crappies in the reservoir, just waiting for a lucky angler to catch them.
