The County Fair has started in Big Piney. I haven't been for years. There was a time when I hauled cookies, pictures, rabbits, and horses over there. And sat in the bleachers for hours for the 4H Horse Show. I enjoyed it, but I was much younger and ambitious then.

Barrie brought me packages from the post office yesterday with "STUFF". I love getting new stuff. The little battery operated eraser is wonderful. I paid about $10 for one a couple years ago, and finally just threw it in the trash. I can't believe the difference with the new one. It is so easy hold and turn on, and does a super job erasing. I can actually control it!
Received a new mechanical pencil with a super fine lead, and some new masking tape. The proportional divider came, and I haven't messed with it very much yet.
Like a lot of things, the hardest part of it is getting it out of the packaging material. And I had to take the eraser to Barrie to get the battery cover back on for me.

What a cute photo!
A perfect description of Pinedale!
I was once rear ended (streets were solid ice) at an intersection. I went to the drug store to call it in. Win was our Chief of Police then, and I told him the address -- intersection of Tyler and Pine, I think it was. Win asked me more about where it was, and when I said "we're right in front of Madge's cabin, then he knew where to find me.
If I told someone I lived on Canal Street, they didn't have a clue where that was. But if I told them I lived directly behind King Cone, they knew.
