Congratulations on the opening of Pour Bistro in Watkinsville at 22 Main Street in what some know as the old Dolvin property right across the street from the Oconee County Courthouse.  Initial reviews were all very positive, but like all new restaurants, they will take a while to get their flow and footing. The crowd was anxious and hungry Monday evening, with parties of six, four, two and one enjoying themselves nearby.  I loved the asparagus. Apparently the reservations and concierge parking may or may not be applicable. I will look forward to eating there again.

Come Walk and Talk with a Scientist Sunday 3-5 at Herman C. Michael Park

Dear fellow Democrats, I wanted to be sure you know about an event in Oconee County this coming Sunday that is  a celebration of science at a time when the nation’s scientists are working in an increasingly hostile environment. The Oconee Democrats have organized the  event — called “Walk and Talk with a Scientist” — for  April 23rd  at  Herman C. Michael Park  to provide scientists a chance to chat with the public about their vital and interesting work. We have people from UGA, the EPA, US Fish and Wildlife, the USDA, the University of North Georgia, and elsewhere —— geologists, botanists, and researchers specializing in poultry science, water toxicology, coral reefs, endangered species, cancer detection, and much more. This free, drop-in event will take place   from 3 to 5 around a  trail that loops about one-third of a mile around a pond. The path is good for baby strollers, wheelchairs, and walkers. People can pair up with a new researcher at
