2026 Life Logs, Day 22: Overflowing with Community
Date: Wednesday, January 22, 2026
Weather: Partly Sunny, Warm for January; High Temp 44, Low 27 degrees F
Location: At Home with My Shadow, Falmouth, MA

Today was warm for January and much of the snow and ice melted away. But never fear. More snow and ice is in our future. Sunday into Monday we are forecast to get over a foot of snow. And tomorrow night the temperature will dip to 6 degrees F. We are in for a week of serious winter.

The highlight of the day was the Town of Falmouth’s Forum on Immigration.

There were speakers, time for small group discussions, but the most remarkable thing was the number of people attending. Every seat in the room was taken and there were scores of people lining the walls and standing out in the hall. There must have been wellover 300 people in attendance, and I think even the speakers were taken aback at the number of people, almost all of whom were supportive of our immigrant population. Heather and the other four Select Board members were present. And I know Heather helped plan the event. I am so proud of her dedication to this town!
