They're back!
Cedar waxwings took over the same tree as last time at Trinity House Apartments today. A drama unfolded as a flock of impudent starlings moved in and drove them out, but the waxwings rallied and returned, forcing out the starlings and reclaiming the tree . . .

This afternoon's snow has caused dangerous road conditions in the area.

The lights are back on
Men at work
Masons were stacking blocks at the Columbia Water Company today.
And these guys were doing something similar a few blocks up, near Third and Walnut.
Unattended open burning next to vehicles
This fire burned and smoldered unattended for at least three hours next to parked vehicles at the Catholic War Vets today. I thought the borough had an ordinance forbidding open burning.
Columbia school district names new business manager
Columbia school board at a meeting Jan. 15 named the district's new business manager.
Amy E. Light will take over effective March 16 and earn $85,000 per year. She replaces Laura Cowburn, who has been with the district 17 years and is retiring.
They're on!
The recently installed lights at the Columbia Plaza were lit this afternoon. Several lights still need to be installed on the northern section of the building.

The tundra swans are early this year
I saw about half a dozen tundra swans flying over Washington Boro around noon today. I wasn't quick enough with my camera to get a pic.

What I saw recently
More light duty
Seen in York - easily accessible buttons. A good idea for Columbia?
Seen in Wrightsville - people do love that bridge.
On the job
Crow's nest?
Emergency personnel at a recent call
Apparently, the logo for a local band. Could be used for the Susquehanna, too.
Several Lancaster County Dollar Generals have been robbed recently. I hope ours isn't next.
Almost sunset on the Susquehanna
Newly opened Mattress Mart at Front & Bridge
Did anyone remember to put the jumper cables away?
More stars and strips forever
Po-jama people
I've been seeing a lot of this over the past year or so. Do public pajama-wearers wear pajamas to bed that they wore in public?
