Daily Bread: October 16, 2008

Good morning, Whitewater

There is one public meeting scheduled for the city today: the CDA Housing Loan Committee meets at 5 p.m.

The National Weather Service predicts that today will be a sunny day, with a high temperature of 58 degrees. The Farmers’ Almanac starts a new, multi-day series with a prediction of “squalls Great Lakes area.” Great Lakes area: no small territory that!

Yesterday’s better prediction: NWS, for quite a few days running.

In our schools today, it’s Market Day pickup at Lincoln School.

In Wisconsin history on this date, in 1850, the Wisconsin Historical Society reports that the longest-running county fair in Wisconsin began its run: “the Walworth County Fair was held for the first time in the village of East Troy. This is the oldest existing county fair on record in Wisconsin.”

The fair has its own website, WalworthCountyFair.com
