Stratham Fair 2008

Just finished Stratham Fair . This year was great. Before the Miss Stratham Fair Pageant Lynn presented 2 scholarships and then the fair presented Lynn with the 4H building being named the "Lynn Garland 4H Exhibit Hall". For her 39 years of working with the 4H. From what I under stand Lynn was behind the design and build of the building many years ago. Then on Sunday Lynn got to see Mrs. Barker, who one of the scholarships is named after.

The 2 photos of ME mom got 2 blues and then a red on one of her Gettysburg photo and then she got Favorite and blue on her Apron she made and a blue for her blue dress.

Hope everyone is safe and staying cool and dry this summer. Time to go and take my morning nap.

TORNADO Hits New Hampshire

Yup a Tornado touched down in Deerfield and moved to Effingham. It was a catagory 2 when it hit and then up to a 3 then back down to a 2. There was one death in Deerfield. A couple of mom's clients where hit but they are OK. One client is a nursery and they where flattened.

Here are some pictures 2 days after the tornado went thru. The first photo is one of mom's clients house on Route 207 the end of Echo Valley Rd. To the left of the house everything is cleared and to the right it was not touched. Reports are saying it was not wide. The other 3 photos are from Route 4 in Northwood at Northwood Lake.

Gettysburg, PA

Mom had a good time at the 145th Gettysburg Re-enactment. That was the longest mom has left me. I had to spend 6 days with grandma and grandpa. Then she came back and mom took a motorcycle riding course so she now has her motorcycle license.
