And so a recent interview with Mayor Carl Wright led this reporter to pine for the days when The Journal News ran a daily “quote of the day,” on the tail of the local Briefs column.

Wright was discussing the loss of several sycamore trees that stood in the way of the county sewer project.

“We love trees,” Wright said, “and trees love Sloatsburg.”

Now that would have been a nice quote of the day.
