We are off to the State Fair. Three families = sampling strange foods, learning some new things, sunburns (or umbrellas, it’s a tossup this year)  kids squealing on carnival rides, lots of walking and looking.  And talking and laughing, of course!  Hope you are having a great holiday weekend, too!  Thanks for taking the time […]

Busy Monday 230

The weather has been impossibly hot  —  till yesterday and it was absolutely perfect.  In fact, I almost wished for a jacket while we visited the farmers market Saturday morning — a fleeting thought since it was 90 plus only the day before! Today is another perfect day. Two in a row to enjoy being […]
