Summer, Fair relaxing

.We have been busy running back and forth to the Doctors which is nothing unusual.  We got our Grandson Brent and we went to the Lewis County Fair.


.It was cool, down in the low 80's and confortable to walk around, we went and watched the Oxen pulls and Brent didn't want to get too close to those horns!!!
.

.We walked the midway and Brent and his Grandmother went to the "Ring the Bell" and believe it or not the little bugger hit the Bell 3 times and walked away with a prize.
.


.I don't do rides but these 2 did a couple, the ferris wheel thing went way up and they both enjoyed it.
.

.This is Brent and Anna Mae at the top of the ride !
.


.We did get to go over and watch the "Big Horses" being put thru their paces, there were some magnificant animals on the course.
.

.We finally stopped and headed for the food tents so we could eat and head for home.
.


.We played at the Jefferson County Home !!
.

.Next night we played at Angles Inn nursing home !
.


.Then we played at Country Manor Nursing unit !
.

.We took a break and visited the Grau's for Cribbage games and the pool, It ended up being a tie with a 1 -1 score because we went to the pool where it was cool.
.

.Marty and I sat out in the shade and cooked Jerked Pork from Eddie Bolivers Meat Market up in Croghan and it was delicious.
.
I am going thru Physical every tuesday and thursday for a small tear in my rotary cuff and Anna mae is back to having the shots in her lower back for pain but we are blessed as this is bearable.

.
We recently lost 2 of our 10th Mountain Division soldiers in recent fighting overseas.
Let us not forget our veterans and service men and women serving our country.

Great to have Brent and show a good time. Those kids (Anna Mae and Brent)do know how to have fun. Neat the guy hit the bell Three times. did he tell you the trick???LOL
I know the folks enjoy the entertainment, you guys brighten up their lives.

My leading chief from my last duty station lives here, looking for him to show up anytime, and am really looking forward to it. He is a great guy....
Take care, we are enjoying Pennsylvania.

I can almost taste those hamburgers from the county fairs. Glad that you all had a good time with your grandson. Bet he loved it.It is good of you folks to make music at the nursing homes. I know they look forward to hearing music. They probably don't get much entertainment. Keep up the good work.
