Gov. Patrick announced a new loan program, that allows first time home buyers to “monetize” the $8000 tax credit, to pay for closing costs.  It is only through the MassHousing mortgage program.  Payment of this loan is deferred until June 30, 2010, to allow homeowners  to repay MassHousing with their 2010 tax refund.

A variety of pottery was presented at this show and sale.  Established potters such as Cynthia Curtis, Jayne Lacey, Susan Hershey, Lisa Vincent and Anni Melancon were shown as well as those of us who still consider ourselves their students.  Patty

Saba is a very pretty labradoodle (sp.?) Who does not like cats, under any circumstances, and always tells them so! Patty
