Old Oaken Bucket
This rather unassuming SE corner of Simpson Door Plant once served as the spot where a two-story wooden structure known as "The Old Oaken Bucket" stood.
That time of year
When I see vendor canopies waiting to be unfolded and a lineup of portable toilets in the park, that is a sure sign the McCleary Bear Festival is about to begin.
A New Tree for Lindsey Baum
Lindsey Baum's tree was recently replaced. According to one news piece: in the place of the former Tree of Hope is now planted a Memorial Tree. Lindsey would have been 20 years old on July 7, 2018, the same day as the McCleary Bear Festival parade.

Independence Day and the Bear Festival
A fireworks stand is side by side with the McCleary Bear Festival trailer on Summit Road in preparation for a busy week. This year the Festival is being held earlier than usual, on July 6-8.
Someone is wigged out
Seen on the McCleary Post Office bulletin board:
"Missing: Brown toupée, around the intersection of Simpson and Summit, due to high winds. A white dog grabbed it and ran away with the thing toward the Park.
If found, please give it to the McCleary City Hall lost and found department."
