Dyson Remembers
The Reagans
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
Following the death of former First
Lady Nancy Reagan at the age of 94,
Great Mills native Roy Dyson who
served in the U.S. Congress before
he became a state senator for District
29, remembered them both as charming and bringing dignity to the White
House.
Nancy Reagan died Sunday.
She brought a lot of class to the
White House, Dyson said. As
Americans she made us all proud of
the first couple.
Dyson said in his contact with the
Reagans while a congressman, that
they were a team who loved each
other.
They were very much in love,
Dyson said. He doted on her.
He praised her efforts to persuade
young people to avoid drug abuse with
her famous Just Say No program
she pushed throughout her husbands
presidency.

Lockheed Martin, one of the largest defense contractors in the world, is looking to
enact a voluntary layoff program that is
targeting 1,000 of employees for termination across the nation.
Employees at Patuxent River Naval Air
Station are part of that targeted population,
according to a press release from the contractors corporate headquarters.
The action also stretches to activities in
Texas, Georgia, California, Mississippi and
West Virginia.
The action is necessary to position
Lockheek Martin Aeronautics to be competitive in the future marketplace, secure
future business opportunities and keep an

The Commissioners of St. Marys County will host their sixth Code Home public
hearing, on Tuesday, March 22, 2016 at the
Leonardtown Volunteer Fire Department.
The address is 22733 Lawrence Avenue,
Leonardtown, MD 20650. The hearing begins at 6:30 p.m.
A move to Code Home Rule would give
county commissioners authority to enact
local laws on a number of subjects without having to await action by the Maryland
General Assembly. Under Code Home
Rule commissioners could not enact any
new taxes or regulatory fees.
Code Home Rule gives the commissioners legislative authority throughout the
year. Public hearings on legislation would
be held in Leonardtown, rather than in Annapolis during the winter. The public could
demand a referendum on any new public
local law, something which does not currently exist. St. Marys County is one of
six counties in Maryland which has yet to
adopt some form of home rule.
St. Marys County voters would have to
approve a referendum to adopt Code Home
Rule on the ballot in the November, 2016
general election.

at 17 traffic signals and adjusted the pedestrian timing at four traffic signals,
the letter states. Additionally our traffic engineering staff conducted a review
of the corridor and found that all of the
traffic control devices were properly in
place.
The sheriffs agency has selected five
intersections in the county that they
want to see red light cameras installed,
with four of them on Route 235 and
only needs approval from the state highway authorities to begin the process of
installation.
Cameron said that ultimately it was
up to the state highway authorities, and
to any vendor that the agency might engage, to allow the red light cameras to
be installed.
Once the process was completed,
Cameron said, the agency would abide
by the decision, but the sheriffs office
would continue to do its research to
make red light cameras a reality.
This is still a traffic safety issue,
Cameron said. Were going to do our
due diligence.
David Buck, SHA spokesman, said
there was still room for Cameron and
state officials to come to terms but red
light cameras would not likely be among
them.
Things can and do change, Buck
said. But we cant support a red light
camera there because the crashes that increase because of red light cameras are
rear end crashes.
Based on the data right now the answer is no. We dont want to make a
situation worse.
County commissioners have no vote
on whether red light cameras will come
to St. Marys County since it is a decision that has to be left up to the sheriffs
office and SHA but Commissioner Todd

My name is Kitty. I was born in April of 2015. I am super friendly. I run over to my foster mom to be petted. I
really like people.I am one lucky girl as I was rescued
from the kill shelter where they euthanized 204 cats per
month in 2015.
I was rescued along with my three baby kittens. They
no longer need me and I am fully vetted and ready to find
a home of my own. Since I am an adult, you could foster
to adopt me once your application is approved. That way
you could see if I would be a good fit for your family and
other pets.

Wanderings
of an Aimless Mind
Lion
or Lamb
Well, as I said on my Facebook status March 1st, March
came in like a lamb, but a lamb with a little wind problem, and
the wind only seemed to get stronger. Maybe it came in more
like a lion cub. Between the wind that morning, barking dogs
on the lam in our yard, and Dahlgren on an explosion spree, it
was quite a noisy day. I am amazed when I look outside and
see a few clumps of dried leaves here and there on the trees
that have still not blown off. One bright spot is watching the
squirrels try to grab and steady the birdfeeder with their little
paws while the wind has it swinging wildly back and forth.
Windy days, I dont even try hair spray or try to get all of this
hair to tame. Why bother? Its not like I take a lot of time with
it any other day. Last week I did one of my thinning scissor
trims on the top from front to back. I must have been tired,
because I thinned it a little more on one side of my part than
the other, leaving my bangs a bit shorter on the one side and
also a bit more thinned, making it poof out more. Just what I
need more poof.
I have already noticed that this is going to be a bad allergy
year for me. There must be some combination of factors, from
the high winds, dampness, and new growth that is hitting me
just right. So, I know that I will be a walking, sneezing zombie
for some time to come. We did buy our Alavert a few days ago,
and maybe when that gets in my system then the symptoms
will level off and ease up. I hate being fuzzy headed. Fuzzyheadedness leads to walking around in circles and from room
to room with no clue what you started out to do. Thank goodness for lists.
The first weekend of March I just stayed mindless, and did
what my husband and I do best, we wandered. We hit a few
wineries here and there on two wine trails in the two weekend
Maryland Wine Passport Experience and took whatever roads
suited us. We only did this past weekend since I am feeling
so much better now at the five week point. Winery hopping
is an easy way to have fun, and not too strenuous. Sometimes
we only taste the reds, so we dont drink much, but still enjoy
the beautiful views and the people. All weekends after this are
already filled, and plus, my husband will have pool season and
softball season starting soon. Sometimes it is so nice for us to
have a weekend out of the house together, and boy have we
been in the house together a lot. Probably too much for us. This
is where the lion and the lamb (albeit a feisty, restless lamb) really clash. When we are out exploring, we are both inquisitive,
happy lambs.
And I was ready to get out, having done enough organizing
of paperwork, crafts, and shelves to last for a few months. Not
that you ever really get caught up. Now I am working on going through all the stuff in the desk that I have had since my
6th birthday. The drawers had been blocked with a file cabinet
for quite a while, but that was moved. There were things still
in there that I havent gone through since I moved into my husbands house 15 years ago. And most of the stuff were items I
hadnt gone through for 20 years before that. I am trying to be
ruthless in what I throw out, though sometimes it is hard when
they are memories. But aged stationary boxes, statements from
15 years ago, cards from even longer ago, and stuck together
wads of rubber bands are just not needed. I guess I better bring
out my inner lion and finish the other drawers, then it is back to
the lamb until the next project. No, I think I want to go through
March like a lion.
To each new days adventure,
Shelby
