What’s Up in the Neighborhood, October 6, 2021

If you go over to the blogroll, you might notice I’ve added a few new blogs to the listing, including the 518 Bites and Sights blog (a nice little addition) and the Bedlam Farm Journal, a peaceful blog about life in upstate Washington County. Definitely worth checking out.

Also, a shoutout is due to G. Jack Urso’s Aeolus 13 Umbra blog, who took my post a few days ago about the New York State intro film Chronicles of Change, and expanded on it for a post of his own. Featuring it here, read this first. “Chronicles of Change (1975): NYS Education Museum Film.“
