MANY NOTICED THIS huge wooden sculpture that went up in Middlebury’s Riverfront Park just south of the Marble Works last week. The big message of optimism — 7 feet tall and 25 feet long — is the work of Jericho Center artist Chris Cleary. This sculpture, and others like it that say “LOVE,” “JOY” and “BE KIND,” are making stops around Vermont. It’s expected to stay for a couple weeks before being moved to a new spot. Check it out while you can. Independent photo/John S. McCright

Why they call it fall GOSH, WE SAW some beautiful autumn foliage this year, despite the drought, which seemed to tone things down. There are still leaves in the trees, but a lot of them are ending up down here. Independent photo/John S. McCright
Nature comes to town A MIDDLEBURY WOMAN was so excited to see this beautiful deer in the Battell Woods right behind her house last week that she quickly grabbed her camera and took a picture from her window. What beautiful eyes! Photo by Dottie Nelson
