Another trip to the ER, this time for my throat, Thank God it was not strep; just the start of a nasty cold. Yes, I had been resting and drinking plenty of fluids. I know so many who have this cold, and they say it’s a bad one. I am still on antibiotic till Wednesday, then Friday another CAT scan and back to the ear, nose and throat doctors on Tuesday for my mastoiditis. Besides that I feel great keeping busy and loving life.

I have been asked if I know what is going on with The Lake Huntington Automotive Services, Inc. It’s not closing; it’s doesn’t have new owners; it’s not going to be a NAPA store. I called owners Brett and Kristin Lockwood, and I was told the station is getting a facelift: a fresh coat of paint, new garage doors, a nice new look, same quality work and friendly service. They still rent U-haul trucks and are still a New York State inspection station. Give them a call at 845/932-8267.

On Saturday, October 28 there will be a Halloween party at The Nutshell starting at 9 p.m. There will be music from Maus Music Entertainment, karaoke prizes, a costume contest and drink specials. For more information call The Nutshell 845/932-5024 or Chris at 845/423-8544.
