GRAB THE CAMERA and head to the hills to experience the peak of fall colors this weekend. From the golden yellows to the crisp oranges and reds, fall can be see all around us.
While out and about, one of my favorite activities is to try to catch a falling leaf before it hits the ground. However you choose to celebrate the beginning of fall, have fun and enjoy the sights and sounds of the outdoors.

TIME CAPSULE OPENING:
Fifty years ago, Montrose assembled newspaper clippings, coins and other memorabilia, sealed them in a time capsule and buried them — all to mark the installation of the USS Montrose's ship bell here.
The capsule is being unearthed on Oct. 6 at a gathering limited because of pandemic restrictions. The following day, its contents will be on public display at 107 S. Cascade Ave. (the downtown visitors center).

NEW POLICE HEADQUARTERS: A new police headquarters and auxiliary facility are one step closer to construction, as schematic design nears completion. Ground breaking will most likely happen this spring.
The new police buildings are being built on city-owned property adjacent to the existing Montrose Police Department on South First Street.
