Ringing in the New Year!

Why do we “ring” in the New Year? Glad you asked. It seems communities used to bid farewell to the old year and welcome the new one by ringing bells, often in churches. The tradition may have grown out of other occasions where bells marked an end like a death, or celebrated a beginning, like a wedding. So there’s a rhyme and a reason to be giving 2025 a melodic, if metaphoric, adieu. And here are a slew of ways to do it for every aged reveler.

Much Ado About Mortgage Rates

Over the last couple of months mortgage rates have climbed despite a Federal Reserve rate cut the last week of October. That is a painful reminder that Fed doesn’t directly drive mortgage rates — a common misconception. The Fed’s benchmark rate mainly affects short-term borrowing—like rates on credit cards, personal loans, and bank savings yields—and has a minor effect on long-term loans such as mortgages.

Craft fairs, art festivals, local bazaars and artisan markets are beginning to welcome attendees and patrons all over Parker and nearby towns!
