Training has started for my Athens, Greece marathon in November - not only am I walking and trying to get in shape for the event, I am eating Greek, with friends, of course. Today we gathered for a Greek food fest on the lawn - our gracious hostess Glenda had prepared a full menu of authentic goodies. Only true friends would insist on acclimatizing you to the culinary challenges you will face when away from home.





Please be on the lookout for the turtles crossing the road when you are driving out of Keene....I flashed my lights at a delivery truck today and the driver slowed down and veered around the ambitious turtle. You know who you are.....thanks. As you leave Keene, don't forget to pick up your fresh strawberries at Nelsons Berry Farm. The berries are smaller than the imports but very delicious.

It's haying season so Albert and Peter were busy baling and stacking tonight.....just in case it rains tomorrow. Happy Solstice to all! (keep the howling down)
