Met Heckers & Haldemans at Hemmerlys & were at John Bryan State Park at 11:00. Watched bluebirds (& others) util 12 when David & Sarah arrived. Karen drove her Mustang with the boys so she could take Sarah back for ballet lesson at 5:00. But she had a flat tire – had to change it on the freeway & didn’t get there until 1:00. David cooked sausage on grill.
Davie, The Haldeman’s & I hiked into the gorge of the Little Miami River. Hot! We left at 3:30 to get me back to set up for Fair. Walt helped me load things stored in Hemmerly’s. Got to Fairgrounds just as it down-poured 1 1/4″ in 45 minutes. Roads blocked after & no Roush’s so I came home. Didn’t even sprinkle out here!
