PHOTOS OF THE WEEK
- Jonathan Carpenter proudly shows off the matador’s jacket and hat that he bought at the Town Hall Theater’s costume sale on Friday. THT founder Doug Anderson voices his approval. The costume was used in a production of the opera “La Traviata.” Independent photo/Steve James
- This bobcat came to visit a Colby Hill home in Lincoln on Tuesday evening. The photographer did not know if it was the same animal that Sally Taylor photographed in in her Lincoln yard last week (that photo appeared in our Sept. 3 edition). As the crow flies, Sally’s house is 5 miles from Colby Hill. Do bobcats fly? Photo by Paul Forlenza
