Happier Days...


Say it isn't so... Customers were disheartened this morning to find a sign on the Back 40 Restaurant ~ CLOSING. Bob and Sharon Logan are retiring ~ for the second time. The sign is typical of their personalities, expressing gratitude to the wonderful folks they have met in the years that they have owned the restaurant. We will certainly miss you.


"Nurture your mind with great thoughts."

Poetry Reading with Neil Paul


We are pleased to host another Thursday afternoon with Neil Paul. On a lazy day in August we relaxed over coffee while Neil Paul read poetry and discussed writing. He described several life experiences that influence his compositions.
Circle Thursday, 14 October, 1:30 p.m. on your calendar. It promises to be a treasured few hours with a man who observes life with a sensitivity that he passes on to his reader. Neil's book, A Slim Volume, makes a charming gift for only five dollars.

Cayuga Development







Excavation has begun on a survey of twelve houses at the end of Winnett Street N. , Cayuga. Located along the former Penn Central railway, the housing project is within shouting distance of the controversial St. Lawrence Resin Products. According to Mayor Trainer and councillor Sloate, Haldimand County Council has been working hard to get the derelict plant cleaned up.
