FROM BRUSSELS
November sunny day appreciated
Can you imagine living in a place
where the seasons do not change
dramatically? Imagine missing the
joy of a sunny day in November like
that we just had. We’d miss the
satisfaction of leisurely putting the
summer things away, enjoying the
sun and the breeze, a job that
sometimes we have to do quickly in
the snow. Walking through the fallen
leaves is another perk of the change
of season, the rustling leaves make
you slow down and kick just a littlehigher. So now with the sun shiningbrightly, I’m appreciating theseasonal changes that are ours.The Brussels, Morris and GreyCommunity Centre is a busy spot,
hockey players can be seen coming
and going from before light to well
after dark. Add some skaters and
walkers and a few meetings and it’s
rare to see the parking lot carless.
Wilbee’s Orchestra gave the folkswhat they are looking for onSaturday night. Smooth music,familiar tunes and friendly faceswere evident as the United Churchput a little exercise into their
fundraising effort. Everyone seemed
to have a good time for a good cause.

Christmas shopping
The Brussels Legion held its annual open house and craft
