Almost 3 months after D Day, June 6, 1944; on Aug. 25, 1944, the British Nottinghamshire Sherwood Rangers Yeoman - Royal Armoured Corps, moved through Vernon to begin operations to cross the Seine.

From Aug. 25-29, 1944 the British lost over 550 men in the operation. Montgomery used the bridge to cross the Seine on Sept. 1, 1944, on his way to Belgium.

According to one guide, "Normandy is a region of northern France. Its varied coastline includes white-chalk cliffs and WWII beachheads, including Omaha Beach, site of the famous D-Day landing. Just off the coast, the rocky island of Mont-Saint-Michel is topped by a soaring Gothic abbey.

Dayhoff: Enjoying autumn leaves in Carroll County Maryland

Dayhoff: Enjoying autumn leaves in Carroll County Maryland


Time Flies by Kevin Dayhoff October 7, 2016


For those of us who adore the long days, sunshine, heat, and humidity of Maryland summers; the shorter days and crisp temperatures of October bring mixed emotions.

We are certainly happy to turn off the air conditioning, throw open the windows and enjoy the cooler temperatures and the brilliant colors of the leaves in Carroll County.

However, we all know in the back of our minds that winter is not far away. Winters in Maryland are hateful. Snow is a four-letter word. Ice is the wrath of the Gods.

Yet, for a runner, the kaleidoscope of the fall colors are a welcome distraction to the constant pounding of footsteps on a fall run.

Fall is for runners. Whether you walk or run, the Wakefield Valley Community Trail is arguably one of the best places to enjoy fall in Carroll County.

Prague's Kafka International Named Most Alienating Airport


Prague's Kafka International Named Most Alienating Airport

This is where we are going on October 13, 2016. Just saying.
Too funny. We have used the airport in Prague before and it was fine.













Business Week ranked the airport last in customer
satisfaction due to long delays, bureaucratic employees, and overall oppressive
atmosphere.

Sept. 27, 1999 Carroll County says it will be Y2K ready – Boris Hartl, Carroll County Times

Carroll says it will be Y2K-ready

Contingency plans protect Maryland jurisdictions from lawsuits

By BORIS HARTL Times Staff Writer

Officials from Carroll County's eight municipalities and the county government said they don't expect the Year 2000 bug to be a problem, provided local power companies can supply them with electricity on Jan. 1, 2000.

Baltimore Gas and Electric says not to worry. Robert Cornelius, BGE's Year 2000 program manager, said the company has been Y2K-compliant since June 30. A spokesman for Allegheny Power, which supplies power to the western half of Carroll County, said his company is immune to the so-called ``millennium bug.''

Carroll's eight incorporated areas - Hampstead, Manchester, Mount Airy, New Windsor, Sykesville, Taneytown, Union Bridge, and Westminster - have either adopted Y2K-compliance plans or are close to doing so.

The county commissioners approved a county government year 2000 compliance plan Wednesday.

``We're in good shape,'' said Union Bridge Mayor Perry L. Jones Jr. ``We’re not as large as the other municipalities so there wasn't as much work to do.''

The General Assembly passed a law last year that protects local governments, under certain circumstances, from lawsuits and liability for damages arising from year 2000 problems, as long as those municipalities adopt a Y2K-compliance plan by Oct. 1. The plan must outline what those municipalities have done to identify and remedy potential Year 2000 computer problems.

Mount Airy Mayor Gerald R. Johnson estimates that by the end of the year, the town will have spent about $10,000 on Year 2000 preparations. The money was partially spent buying new computers, software, and some backup power generators for the sewer systems.

The Union Bridge Town Council could adopt its Y2K-compliance plan at its Monday night meeting, Jones said. The town has upgraded its computer systems and has installed backup generators for its water and sewer systems.

The New Windsor Town Council passed its Y2K-compliance Plan Sept. 1. The Manchester Town Council adopted its Y2K-compliance Plan at its Sept. 14 meeting. The town is in the middle of installing generators at two well sites.

As part of the town's emergency preparedness plan, Sykesville officials have created a Y2K contingency task force. The will purchase a police generator for the police department.

Sykesville's Town Council is scheduled to review its Y2K contingency plan at its next meeting, which is set for 7 p.m. today.

Taneytown received a $10,000 grant from the state to help the city upgrade its accounting and computer software and make it Y2K-compliant. That was taken care of a month ago, said City Manager Chip Boyles.

City officials are in the process of buying a generator to run a couple of different water wells should the electricity go out Jan. 1, Boyles said.

Generators are also on stand-by at the sewer treatment plant, he said.

Extra policemen and utility workers will be on hand New Year's Eve in the case the power does go out or other problems arise, he said.

Boyles said that if for some reason they do lose power, water and sewer services will still be provided.

But, Boyles said, he's confident Taneytown's electricity source, Allegheny Power, is Y2K-compliant and won't have any problems.

Hampstead officials could not be reached for this report.

The Westminster City Council could approve its Y2K plan at its meeting tonight. Copies of the plan are available at City Hall, located at the 1800 block of Emerald Hill Lane.

Allen Staggers, an Allegheny Power spokesman, said the power company will staff extra employees to handle complaints and questions during the holiday season. BGE will do the same.

``We don't anticipate any Y2K problems; we are more concerned about the typical outages during the day,'' Staggers said. ``Anyone at anytime could be out of power. We'll make the extra effort and respond to all the typical outages. We don't want people to [mistakenly] think it's Y2K when it's not. That's our biggest fear.''

Staff Writer Stacey Ward contributed to this report.

Driver charged with hit and run involving a Westminster Vol. Fire Dept. ambulance at Carroll Co. crash scene Sept. 23, 2016

Sept. 29, 2016 by Kevin E. Dayhoff

We want everyone to come home safely at the end of the day.



On Friday, early in the afternoon, Sept. 23, 2016, a driver blew through an accident scene on westbound Rt. 140 and Sandymount Road, almost hit a Westminster Vol. Fire Dept. EMS provider, and sideswiped ambulance 38.

On Wed., Sept. 28, 2016, Greg Shipley with the Maryland State Police office of media communications sent out a news release about the incident: http://news.maryland.gov/msp/2016/09/28/driver-charged-with-hit-and-run-involving-ambulance-at-carroll-co-crash-scene/

On Wed., Sept. 26, 2016, the Carroll County Times carried the story: “Westminster man charged with hit-and-run of ambulance at crash scene,”
“A Westminster man has been charged in a hit-and-run incident after he allegedly drove through a crash scene on Md. 140 on Friday, striking an ambulance, then drove away…” Carroll County Times staff Wed., Sept. 28, 2016 http://www.carrollcountytimes.com/news/crime/ph-cc-ambulance-hit-and-run-20160928-story.html

On Thursday afternoon, Sept. 29, 2016, news reporter Tracey Leong and videographer Judy Ryan from WJZ Baltimore Channel 13 interviewed Westminster Vol. Fire Dept. EMS provider Brittany Baeder about the hit and run crash in Carroll Co. Sept. 23, 2016 at Rte 140 and Sandymount Rd. http://baltimore.cbslocal.com/2016/09/29/hit-and-run-driver-unapologetic-after-narrowly-missing-firefighter/



“The men and women of the Westminster Vol. Fire Dept., on behalf of all Carroll County fire fighters. EMS provides and police officers, urge the driving public to exercise extra restraint, caution, care, and patience when they come upon fire and police officials responding at an accident scene.

The consequences of not exercising that extra care can be horrific. Besides, they could attending to your loved-one, neighbor, friend, or family member – or the first responder hurt or killed by your actions could be your loved-one, neighbor, friend, or family member. Move over - we want everyone to come home safely at the end of the day.” Kevin E. Dayhoff Westminster Fire Engine and Hose Co. No. 1 PIO and Chaplain
