St Dominic's is among a row of bungalows opposite the Kitestown Road junction, but while most of the others have been changed and extended, St Dominic's is still much as it was when it was built in the 1950s. There's plenty of scope to extend it now, as it's on 0.3 of an acre with lawned gardens front and back. It's 1,227 sq ft, all on one floor, with an open-plan living room, dining room and kitchen to the left and three bedrooms to the right, two of them with sea views. There's also an attic that hasn't been converted and a garage in the garden.

It's no exaggeration to say Tign na Mara is right on the strand. Loughsinny Beach is practically the garden, with the harbour on the other side behind the house. 'Tign' is also an accurate description, as the place measures just 474 sq ft, although it has what you need. There are two bedrooms - a double and a single - plus an open-plan kitchen and living room, with a picture window looking out over the sand and water. There's a little stone-walled patio out the front, facing west over the beach. Skerries is about 10 minutes' drive to the north, while the M1/M50 junction is about half an hour away.

The first floor has four bedrooms plus a bathroom and shower.

You won't have to bother with gardening much at No15 Thornleigh Road, as the back garden has been fully paved with slate tiles. If it's greenery you're after, the Broadmeadow Linear Park and Thornleigh playground are across the road. No15 measures 1,142 sq ft on three floors, with two bedrooms on the first floor and a third on the top floor with ensuite shower. On the ground floor, the kitchen is at the front and opens through an archway to a living/dining room at the back, with a fireplace and patio doors.

At what age did you start to recognize positive characteristics in animated characters?

The KidKraft Disney Dollhouse Dance & Dream Castle (which you can check out here) royally stands at 4ft tall and lets a doll dress up in their finest attire to twirl the night away on a rooftop patio to 3 dreamy songs and explore 8 Disney Princess themed rooms throughout the castle.

Oh my! An invitation to the ball! How exciting! Precious KidKraft Disney Princess Dance & Dream Castle lets dolls dress up in their finest attire and then dance the night away on the rooftop. Press the tiara button to play three dreamy songs and watch princesses twirl around to the music. The unique design provides storage for jewelry and accessories on the front faade. Inside youll find regal furniture ready for royal stories.

Whats neat about opening up this Disney dollhouse is the sound! The interior mechanisms not only play music on the elegant rooftop balcony but when its time for play, a magical harp sounds when your little kid creator opens the door.

Likewise, when playtime is over, parents can close the doors enclosing all the action figures inside with the furniture. Its an easy cleanup. Is your little Disney princess fan playing dress up along with their toys? The doll house balconies on the exterior are creatively themed to capture jewelry or scarves in the crown points to drape the Castle in extra fun.

Included with the KidKraft Disney Princess Dance & Dream Castle is twenty royal furniture pieces like a bed fit for Princess Aurora, a dining set for Tiana, a dressing wardrobe set for Cinderella, and a bathtub for Ariels mermaid fins! Step down the staircase in front of the grand clock to the music room, where youll find a baby grand piano to practice your music lessons.

Peek at the wallpaper lining each room, and youll see Ray buzzing around the cakes, Flounder and Sebastian in the bathroom, and Cogsworth in the library. Even Lucifer has a spot on the couch! Everyones favorite fairytale is included in the small details, leading to exciting play.

When your dolls are ready for the ball, step up to the rooftop where there are places for four dolls to stand and dance the night away. The center front golden button plays the three songs for entertainment. The Disney KidKraft dollhouse even has tiny steps for the Princess dolls to make their way up, and hopefully not lose a beautiful glass slipper on the way down!

The Event Barn at Mahr Park Arboretum is nearing completion with just some small details left to complete, according to Mahr Park Arboretum Director Ashton Robinson.

To celebrate the completion of the renovation, the city will be hosting an open house at the more than 5,000 square foot event venue on Friday.

The open house will span most of the day to allow for the community to visit with COVID safety measures in place.

We will welcome our business and organization visitors from noon to 3 p.m. and the community from 3 to 6 p.m., according to Sara Lutz, public relations director for Madisonville. We will be serving refreshments throughout the day. We are also very excited to feature several local music artists playing on the beautiful outdoor patio during the event.

Musical performances will include Rufus Baker and Julia Sizemore from noon to 1:30 p.m., Rachel Crick and Hunter Bishop from 1:30 to 3 p.m., Spencer Holley from 3 to 4 p.m., Johnny Keyz from 4 to 5 p.m. and Luci Bess from 5 to 6 p.m.

The space provides a catering kitchen, back patio, VIP room, a space for a band, buffet or party space, furnished entry and registration room, roll-up glass doors, rustic wood beams and batten walls, herringbone wood features and white round tables and chairs.

The outside patio is about 3,600 square feet, and offers a big area for outside events, said Robinson.

Robinson said she expects the event space to be a way to make the Madisonville area more marketable.

I think it will encourage a lot of people to come into the park and bring more people in even from out of town visiting for conferences or weddings, said Robinson. I think the community needs a place like this. Theres not a place like this in Madisonville.

Robinson said bookings have already been made this week.

As far as using the facility, we are just following CDC guidelines whatever they are at the time and we will change with them whatever it may be, said Robinson. We have started booking this week and open house is kind of the kick off of that.

In the event of a fire

Flee the minute calamity becomes imminent, and certainly if you are told to evacuate.

Take your disaster kit and important documents with you.

Back your car into an open space to load it, leaving it pointed in the direction you plan to head. While you load up, leave the cars doors unlocked and the key in the ignition.

If the fire has hit your house before youve had time to escape, check the temperature of any doorknob you need to use before you open it. A hot knob means the flames are close on the other side of the door. Pick another exit.

If you have to flee through a room on fire, crawl so you will be below the smoke level.

Throw on a heavy coat to protect against burning embers.

If you have time and winds arent high

Wet down the roof of your hose with a garden hose. But emergency officials say dont try to be a hero. They dont want to waste valuable time they could use to fight the fire to rescue you.

To reduce or slow the spread of fire, move combustible patio furniture inside, or at least to the other side of the house from where the fire is approaching. Flaming embers will have less to ignite.
