August 14, 2018

Things started off simply enough. A fresh pot of coffee was brewing outside the Saline Area Senior Center library. Fresh pastries has been set out on two plates along one of the side walls within.

September 11, 2018

In too many ways, “9/11” seems too far away, to too many people as a relevant touchstone for today.
