I realize Earth Day has passed, but I happened upon an interesting article on of all things, sidewalks made of rubber. Recycled material is used and the cost is quite a lot less than concrete. The rubber sidewalks also prevent the cracking that occurs from tree roots and winter weather.

 Now in other developments, I have a sad situation to report on. I know many of you have already seen the news reports on Cheshire resident Tim Dioses, who has not been seen since 10:30 a.m. this past Thursday after pulling into the parking lot of Naugatuck Valley Community College in Waterbury.

Tim is my next door neighbor’s son and of course, everyone in the neighborhood is concerned. I actually did not find out about this until 10 p.m. Saturday night when I was checking the Newsfeeds that are now back on my website.

It doesn’t matter what you think or feel, as a mother I can just imagine what Tim’s family is going through now.

Please pray for this family. Here is the link to the WTNH story.
