mic<\/a>\u00a0performances at the Rindge Meeting House this past Friday.<\/p><p>Earlier, Betsy, Ron and I took a walk to the United Church of Jaffrey grounds and then visited the <a href=\"https:\/\/monadnockinn.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Monadnock Inn<\/a>, where we met the new innkeeper and the chef, who is a friend of Betsy&#8217;s.<\/p><p>On Saturday, we looked for ancestral gravesites at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.findagrave.com\/cemetery\/2353078\/meeting-house-cemetery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Meeting House Cemetery<\/a> in Rindge.<\/p><p>I found the grave of Isaac Wood, Ron&#8217;s Minuteman ancestor.\u00a0 It&#8217;s also listed in &#8220;Find A Grave&#8221;, which is good because the photos there are a lot better than mine!<\/p><p>It was cold and windy, so we didn&#8217;t stay long.\u00a0 We returned to Jaffrey to say goodbye to the Trimbles and made a stop at the state liquor store for a couple more bottles of a nice white that we&#8217;d bought the day before for a hostess gift along with Bailey&#8217;s for Cathy and Cindy.<\/p><p>After a bit of floundering (my shotgun mojo was not working), we found the parking lot where we were to meet James.<\/p><p>By luck, we stumbled on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thechattabox.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Chatta Box<\/a>, a surprisingly good Asian restaurant in a nearby strip mall, for dinner.<\/p><p>We enjoyed a fine meal and a lively conversation with James about his academic studies and why he&#8217;s pleased with Bridgewater.<\/p><p>Heard from Em, she had a good interview for a receptionist job, and was invited for a second on Tuesday!<\/p><p>Today we did most of the usual: NY Times, transfer station, laundry.<\/p><p><a
