Trella Hemmerly – 1981-07-01

Wednesday, July 1, 1981
To fairgrounds at 8:30 to unload for Country Store. Francis & Sally Roush there & we had things ready to sell by 9:30. Workers all appeared on time – sold $170 – no expenses – all last year’s stuff except Howard’s baskets.
Only about $35 from flea market.

Doris Chambers in cabin making yeast bread on kerosene stove.

Harry Bard joined MCHS & stopped by so I could ride behind his mules Jack & Babe – took photos of fairgrounds as I rode.

Sawmill dedicated at noon. Orlie Barks age 102 there. His 97th fair. Interesting to see a log “squared” & then sliced into boards.

Had to “talk” my way through the front gate to load & unload as it is closed this year to vehicular – Only to walk through – Wayne Harper helped me return things.
