Merry Christmas to all of those who celebrate in the Town of Bedford

Merry Christmas!  Christmas celebrates the birth of Christ, an event that shaped the Christian faith. For many, Christmas involves gifts under the tree, stockings hanging in the living room, lights in the window, time spent with family and friends, and, for good boys and girls, a visit from Santa Claus.  To all in Bedford who celebrate, we wish you peace and good will this Christmas.

Reminder ~~ Town Offices will be closed December 25 and 26 in Observance of the Christmas holiday

After almost three years, the “romantic getaway” that TV legend Dick Clark and his wife built on a hilltop in Malibu, California — the house that so many people have likened to the architecture of “The Flintstones” — has finally sold.

It went for an appropriately eccentric $1,777,777,reported our friends at Trulia.

Clark and his wife, Kari, were married at 7 p.m. on July 7, 1977 (7/7/77), in a ceremony that supposedly lasted 17 minutes and had seven guests. And he is said to have had a post office box numbered 7777.

The house sold for just a hair over half the initial asking price of $3.5 million.

Yahoo Homes spoke to the listing agent, Diane Carter of Coldwell Banker, earlier this year, when the price was cut to $3 million. She said the Clarks built it in 1988 as a “romantic getaway.” The couple listed it in March 2012, not long before the TV host died at age 82.
