Not sure who is responsible for adding the new flower baskets on many of the light poles in town, but they make the center of town look great. These are a nice addition to the other plantings in the public areas of town.

I assume that the SO Public Work folks will play a roll in keeping all of the hanging baskets and plantings watered and weeded as we go through the summer. If you are a gardener as I am, you know all of that beauty takes ongoing work.

Many thanks to our SO Public Works staff.

In the past, the Village has asked each resident to hang some baskets from their local Gaslights. If I remember correctly, Meyer Schreiber, an oldtime resident, led the project. It really is lovely, as you say.

Each of us should "adopt" a Gaslight and treat it well. The Village will look even prettier.

Wanted to pass along that Home Cheapo has very nice geranium baskets for $5 and change. Granted, by now they may have killed them, but the ones I got were very nice. Hung them on the lamp in front of my house and I have to say I love the look.
