Who likes to take a walk at the pond?
Do you care about the landscape and
scenery?
Hampton Community Association & Pond
Commitee would like to preserve the walkway and
what we all have grown to enjoy. But, with rising cost
we are reaching out for support. We would like to
resurface the walkway with perhaps limestone. Is there
anyone able to help accomplish this tasks which would
require the cost of the limestone and the distribution
throughout the area? Or the equipment for moving the
limestone from one end to the other.

HOROSCOPE
Pisces February 19 – March 20
2016 is a power year, Pisces, and most of what you do will happen
out in public, in plain view, and probably with the help and cooperation of
others.
Your circle of friends and partners will grow, starting in January and
February. You won’t feel lonely in 2016.
Feel more bold about money, possessions, and your own body in
the springtime. Consult your intuitions and instincts as a way to look
before you leap into unfamiliar territory - but be brave.
Later in April, May, and June, when Mars is retrograde, your mental
focus and health will be less impacted than other signs. Enjoy a period of
emotional calm. You know how to feel intense without showing it all the
time.
A Solar Eclipse in March may stir events in your world, but you’ll be
prepared. The Lunar Eclipse in Pisces in September is more emotional.
The Mercury-Venus conjunction in your 2016 chart is a gift that keeps
you smart, sharp, and sensitive all year long.
2016 is a year rich with changes and opportunities for greater, deeper
happiness together. You will need to express what changes you want,
though, and perhaps get the ball rolling on some of them. You and your
partner are on firm ground all year long with the Mercury-Venus conjunction in your 2016 chart. You may share big dreams of major purchases or
vacations, or even generous donations to charities... but you both know
to keep these dreams on hold, for this year at least.
Starting in the midsummer, your partner may be the more emotional of
the two of you, so handle each other with care and love. Be supportive,
talk out and share more rather than clamming up and being more needy
and demanding. Any exposed frailties will draw you closer together every
day.
In the fall and winter, decide which social events and groups are most
satisfying and focus your time on them. Having fun can get intense, too!
Think big, feel big, plan big, and act big in 2016, Pisces. Small things
can be done in a big way and then shine with perfection and success,
especially in October. This is the kind of work that you can do throughout
2016.
Self-confidence is the key. Most of what you want to do and accomplish is unselfish and intended for the benefit of all, so don’t sell yourself
short on anything. A Solar Eclipse in March could open a career opportunity for you and you can do things this year than no other sign can.
If business partners or co-workers get emotional on you in July, you
can empathize and smooth the waters. Keep some emotional distance
and spare yourself a dip in the whirlpool of confusion. In fact, you’ll look
like the hero you are.
SUNDAY, WEDNESDAY & FRIDAY ONLY FROM 8AM-8PM
