MILLERTON — The soccer field at Eddie Collins Memorial Park has become a Sunday soccer pitch for eight teams in a regional men’s league.

Two teams from Millerton, and six others from Brewster, Pawling, Torrington, Dover Plains and Millbrook are scheduled to play up to four games each Sunday.

On Sunday, May 4, Millerton defeated Millbrook’s Hermanos Cuma 4-0 on a wet field, and the 80-minute game was played before Sunday’s rains came.

By noontime, the parking lot was filling up and Torrington was setting up to play Dover Plains as the crowd grew, half filling the parking lot and beginning to line up for papas fritos prepared undert a tent on the sidelines.

Games are scheduled through June 1.

After moving to West Cornwall in 2012, we were given a thoughtful housewarming gift: the 1997 edition of “Dirr’s Hardy Trees and Shrubs.” We were told the encyclopedic volume was the definitive gardener’s reference guide — a fact I already knew, having purchased one several months earlier at the recommendation of a gardener I admire.

At the time, we were in the thick of winter invasive removal, and I enjoyed reading and dreaming about the trees and shrubs I could plant to fill in the bare spots where the bittersweet, barberry, multiflora rose and other invasive plants had been.Years later, I purchased the 2011 edition, updated and inclusive of plants for warm climates.
