We did have rain for an hour or so the past two days but that pattern has passed by now. More heat. Our trip to NH was so wonderful and meeting you and Dan just makes us smile. Love the cosmic surprise! We will see you next time and I hope it's soon.lillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06350537166349301712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6005324767450032096.post-33553036211651033842009-07-11T08:10:58.497-04:002009-07-11T08:10:58.497-04:00Anon- We were just at Fairgrounds Antique Market y...Anon- We were just at Fairgrounds Antique Market yesterday and found out that they move out their building, and close down for a month for the county fair (isn't that crazy?!)... so if you plan to go I would suggest calling first!for the love of a househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13151787635612708698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6005324767450032096.post-84827638206712316642009-07-10T06:54:09.330-04:002009-07-10T06:54:09.330-04:00Hi Anon... of course, I'm happy to share.

Mike and I helped an elderly man on the Fourth. He had ridden his bike to a farmstand and was packing up to ride back, when I noticed the sky not looking too good. We offered to take him where ever he wanted, we said that we had a bike rack for his bike...at first he said no, then after coaxing and him looking at our bike rack he agreed to the ride.
