Bayfield has fall atmosphere
BAYFIELD - This past week has seen a
change of personality for Bayfield as the
holiday visitors retreat and the village is
once again quiet and uncrowded. Gone are
all the closely parked cars on Main Street,
much of the traffic on Highway 21 and the
peripatetic strollers browsing through the
stores.
Theweather was -perfect for a walk -about
with time and space to greet familiar faces
and exchange news. For some Bayfield
children the week has also meant school at-
tendanc& for the first time, a new ex-
perience, for some eargerly embraced while
for others the introduction to a less popular
regime.
Already a few trees are signalling the im-
minence of fall, discarding their first leaves
and hinting at color changes.
For cottagers it is a time to prepare to
close up the house, storing away the
memories of another summer, in some
cases one more in a sequence covering two
or three generations. Carefully tended
gardens are tidied and the echo of voices is
diminished as unoccupied swings and pools
remain as tokens of the children's summer
days.
Other residents already have plans in
hand for trips to exotic places flooded with
sunshine which beckon enticingly as the
seasons change. Yet others enjoy the
perusal of colorful travel brochures, the
decision making and anticipation of trips en-
compassing familiar or unknown
destinations.
But Bayfield does not go to sleep between
summer and spring. For many local groups,
their busy summer schedules completed, it
is a time to look to the future. Feelers have
to be extended towards the formation of new
committees, new programs and their im-
plementation. There is no measure of the
volunteer participation, and yet it is the life
blood of the various organizations, a con-
tribution made year after year and always
requiring new infusions.
May it long continue with new residents
willing to perpetuate the community in-
itiatives and so maintain the essential
essence of -the Village of Bayfield.
