It appears as if a classic e-mail scam has received a local twist. Residents of Dutchess County have been subjected to an email scam in which residents have been receiving an email that states they are going to be murdered unless they send money to the scammer’s account.

If you receive an email like this, call your local police department.

Tripod Planter

There is something about the Tripod Planter from Chiasso that just speaks to me. It’s made out of steel and designed to weather the elements outdoors year round.
