Excuse me, would you please stop saying that!
The other day, I overheard a conversation (and I use that term very loosely) — and this is a brief excerpt from it: “And so anywho, like, I was like, you know, soooo mad that I could, like, hardly —you know what I mean? — even, like, speak.” The rest of the conversation was like [...]

Spring has definitely sprung and no matter what street you turn down in Fairfield Glade, the blooms are breathtaking. A close-up example (above) of this was taken by resident Bill Fuller recently and highlights the striking contrast between the beautiful blue skies, the cherry blossom branch, and the wispy white clouds floating past.

Tiger Woods gave himself an advantage he was not allowed to take. That is the end-all of what happened at the Masters last Friday afternoon. As I write this on Saturday afternoon prior to The Vista going to press for this issue, I am at a disadvantage — because I don’t know if Woods rallied [...]

Spring has sprung! Evidence of that can be seen in the photo above — an Eastern Bluebird taking a break from building its summer nest near a Fairfield Glade home. It’s mate was not too far away.

What a difference a few days make!
Last Monday, as the top picture of Spring Lake attests, it sure felt like Spring was a long way off as Fairfield Glade experienced frigid temperatures and an inch or two of snow. But by Friday, the snow was gone and temperatures climbed. Maybe — just maybe [...]

A Vista Review ‘Les Miserables’ production one of a kind
By TRACY WALTHER For The Vista Ok, so I am definitely NOT an entertainment reviewer. And as you soon shall see, I am no writer, either. So I suppose what follows could be considered an editorial, as it is merely opinion. But then again, isn’t a review just the writer’s opinion? Anyway…. I was completely [...]
