Big Weekend

We left Friday around 11 am and got to Jaffrey around 3 or so.

Betsy had a full afternoon and evening planned, and I believe she tried to introduce us to half the state of New Hampshire.

Thorndike Beach Club

We visited their Thorndike Beach Club, attended a Project Shakespeare reading and reception and then the Amos Forum lecture with yet another reception.

By the fourth “Meet and Greet”, I was worn out and the first to leave. Easy walk down the hill to their house.

Next day, after pancakes, we went to the thrift shop at the transfer station and the Jaffrey River Fest, where we caught up with Jenda and the grands. At some point, David drove us back to the house via a gorgeous scenic route. Later, he and Ron took a spin around a pond they like.

Sunday morning, we visited Charles and Jenda’s garden and were on the road by 11:30 or thereabouts. We stopped at White’s so Ron could set his GPS and for corn.

Ron wanted to see his cousin in Natick, so we got off Route 2 and took 126 through Concord. Nice ride.

We made it home in plenty of time to unpack and go to the last day of the Fair, where we enjoyed the craft exhibits.

Peter had done a great job watering the potted plants; everything is fine.

Betsy is in charge of her church “White Elephant” table. She gave us a set of cordial glasses which she’d planned to donate. We’re enchanted with the colors, so I put them on the kitchen window sill rather than hiding them in a cupboard or cabinet.

Today, I’m working on laundry and photos. Ron is out.

Just got back from a very good planning session for the MRTC’s “meet and greet” next month.
