Here is what certain unnamed sources have to say about polka dot junction's one and only "chronicle"

incessant rumination
pure unadulterated gibberish
good old fashioned gossip

March 12,2018 2:40pm

Wow, it's already March 12. We have been on a bit of a winter hiatus if there is any such thing as that. The news is that scarecrow seems to have taken to his job as the barista with much success! No one seems to care that he can't remember the names of all the coffee drinks!

Also in the works is a plan to open an extension on the back of cafe pdj. It will be called "the coffee caboose" and will be in one of the several empty cabooses scattered throughout the junction. scarecrow may manage that until the fall. In the meantime please check out our interesting selection of coffee mugs!

February 26, 2018 3:38pm

pdj cafe hires it's very first barista and guess who it is?

Apparently one, of the scarecrow triplets dazzled with his natural talent to "simply hang". We'll be interested too, see
how he fairs in terms of the coffee thing.

February 9, 2018 2:16pm

It’s February 9 and at polka dot junction we celebrate this memorable day in history. There is not a resident old or young who doesn’t know the importance of February 9, 1964. If you don’t know, perhaps this picture of our very own Beagles Four will spark your memory. Together again for a reunion concert, perhaps a little rusty now (they never made it on to The Ed Sullivan show) but the feeling is there.

February 3, 2018 12:53pm

Those who enjoy the vocal creations of the three tenor beagles might be interested to hear that they will be performing at the coffee and wine tasting to be held at the pdj cafe. A date hasn't been set, but it's something to look forward to in the midst of this brutally cold winter weather that we are experiencing.

The "politics" of polka dot junction

It is pretty obvious that dots and stripes have enjoyed a long run at pdj. It is also rumored that a few independent and less visible design groups have been revealed as the checkerboards, the abstracts and the flowers. Apparently, the flowers have been struggling for more visibility and are now identifying themselves as "flower children". For some reason that sounds familiar. In the introduction of several new items this week, it appears that "flower power" is alive and well at the junction. Note the simple irony of how the flowers and the checkerboards work harmoniously together to create some slammin' new designs!

Now that the brutally cold single digit temperatures that welcomed in 2018 have passed, the mayor has lifted the ban on travelling beyond a 3 block radius of home for all residents. This presented no problem for the majority. Although hesitant to name names, there is a list circulating underground of possible violators. It appears that most are members of the witch community, who due to their highly achieving and competitive natures, refused to cancel "Take-off and Landing Practice". The smooth transition from running with to mounting of the broom is not only challenging but crucial to one's reputation in the community and the same goes for the dismount. The addition of Wi-Fi and GPS to the newest line of broomsticks has garnered mixed reviews, but to date, none of them have heat.

Enough about crows for now, we have another new resident at polka dot junction. Skip the Cat has recently been adopted by the two Bernese Mountain Dogs who live at the foothills of Mt. Jinglejack. Skip does seem to be adjusting fairly well but much like his adoptive parents, is a bit of a...

Wee One has decided not to go back to Music School this fall. We all know that she has always been a natural talent. Mama Mayor is fine with this decision. She knows firsthand that one may not find a profession on planet earth, even in polka dot junction until well into the "adult" years,...

Back in August we posted Part 1 of The Story of Le Crow. We have decided to post both parts here so no need to backtrack. The Story of Le Crow Since everyone knows that the annual wine tasting at The Wigglestompers Vineyard is a major event, Le Crow decided that it was time to go and put us to...

One week to the day, Wee One has decided she no longer wants to be a Scarecrow. She thought it was boring, none of the other scarecrows paid much attention to her. She also swore that she could hear some of the crows making fun of her and then it started to rain! She gave absolutely no...

Word around the junction is that now Wee One is thinking of becoming a dog walker!!! Yes really.Not really that this is true, really that this is word around town. Let's just say that the canine population is not happy about this. I mean come on, A CAT WALKING A DOG, probably hearsay but...

You all know that news is posted when it comes in, as in any "legitimate" chronicle. There have been requests for a release of "hearsay from the junction" in chronological sequence for those who want to follow the stories as they occurred. We are working on it, we have a guy. For now, you will...

In our last posting we asked you to please "bear" with us as we put together a chronological chronicle. I just happened to look at that and thought, hmm . . . is that right? It looks funny but surely it's not "bare" I looked it up and this is what I found:

1. The modern day beagle originates from England but the first ancestors of the breed can be traced to ancient Greece. 2. The beagle is more popular in the states and Canada than in its country of origin.3. The beloved Snoopy dog in the cartoon Peanuts is the most famous beagle.4. Beagles used...

It has been a while and we know that many of you have wondered about Wee One and her struggles to find her way. Interest may have wained and now rekindled due to her appearance on one of our new items. YES, that is our little darling on the new Jazz Cat Star Wall Clock! Also YES, she is a...

We have neither seen nor heard much from Pilates Girl in quite a while. Polka Dot Pilates is one of the oldest institutions at the junction. It's up in the north end near the vineyards and several of the scarecrows, not to mention a crow or two are clients. With it's longstanding reputation,...

Most of us remember what a dear little thing Wee One was as a youngster. She wanted to be just like Mama Mayor. Perhaps it was pre-mature of La Mayor to send little Wee to Pilates at such a young age. She loved her dance and music classes very much. Pilates, not so much. For this reason she is...

Thank you for your inquiries about Wee One’s bike, but it is not, has never been and most likely will never be for sale. If that is what you heard, then you can simply dismiss it as genuine, honest to god hearsay. Yes the bicycle is quite beautiful, it’s yellow, the style is retro and it has...

Apparently the first bicycle or pre-cursor to the 2-wheeled bicycle as we know it was invented first by a French nobleman in 1791 and again in 1817 by a German Baron. It was made of wood and foot powered, had wheels but no pedals. Hmm, glad I was born a bit later in time. The term "bicycle"...

Who said that and what is the answer? As a clue, let's just say that after the recent appearance of Pilates Girl in town, many have been looking for Pilates Christmas gifts or cards. Even Christmas Gifts for Pilates Instructor (yours), take a look at this inspiring Pilates holiday card or this...

A substantial amount of money has been anonymously donated to polka dot junction. It stipulates that the funds go towards the construction of a Cultural Center to accommodate the recent influx of crows. Many, including the mayor feel that the crow population has much to contribute to the...

Actual fact and not hearsay that was circulating the junction last summer was about crows. It is now widely accepted that not only do crows hold grudges for a lifetime, they also remember kindness. The warning was to think twice before dissing one. Here at polka dot junction, we are suggesting...

Apparently one, of the scarecrow triplets dazzled with his natural talent to "simply hang". We'll be interested too, see
how he fairs in terms of the coffee thing.

Wow, they said it would start snowing in polka dot junction and surrounding areas at 5pm and it actually did! This is not hearsay, it's actual fact.
Do we celebrate the accuracy of weather reporting in this day and age or this product from polka dot junction???

Where have all the flowers gone?
I am not talking about the song, but the actual query. We at the junction don't want to hear this anymore. Just look at our two newest products!
