Day 1336: Farm Festival Fun

I completed 18,200 lengths or 93 miles!  Looking ahead to the rest of the week, temps will be in the mid 80s.  I should reach my goal by Friday.  Then what?  Give up swimming?  No way!

Usually we avoid crowds, but today we took a spin around the farm festival.  It was delightful to meet up with lots of friends and that was only near the food court.  We spent a couple hours and never even walked through the displays.  A new food truck offered pulled pork, salt potatoes, cole slaw.  Delicious!  Next we tried meat pies and pork kebabs from the Spanish food truck.  YUM!  Plus, we splurged on waffles for me and a doughboy for Steve.  Once a year, it won't kill us.  

Several thousand people gathered in the parks to shop, visit, munch on goodies, sell crafts and farm produce.  It provides an opportunity for community members to come together.   That's one of the joys of living in a small town.  

Instead of the common drivel on tv, we watched a Thomas Hardy classic, Far From the Madding Crowd.  The production was flawless and the lead actors magnificent.
