Hope everyone had a lovely Memorial Day weekend — and didn't have to spend it working!

Josh and I are, as always, putting the paper out today. It is bursting at the seams and is chock full of great stories, from school board decisions to the waste transfer station controversy and a great feature Josh wrote about a church with two ministries in it.

Also, just a reminder that the Project House open house is tonight, despite the rain and gloomy skies. I went out there earlier today, and the house looks great! (To see a picture of it, check out tomorrow's paper.)

let it snow

Though it tried its best, the weather did not prevent the upcoming edition of The News of Orange from getting put together today.

Everyone made it into the office (albeit some of us later than others), and we got it all done. Some things, unfortunately, did not make it in. Some of the pictures I took at Friday's crosstown rivalry game between Orange and Cedar Ridge were left out because we don't have team rosters for the CRHS teams. Without being able to identify players, we couldn't put their photo in the paper. Hopefully, we'll get their names soon, and I'll post the pictures here.

Town, county and school board meetings were all postponed until later dates because of the snow. Though we didn't get much in Hillsborough, other parts of the county got more than a dusting. I know where I am out in Carrboro, we got about 6 inches. Again, I took some pictures, and I'll get them up here tomorrow.

If you've got to be out on the roads, drive safely.
