our two weeks of summer are over


We went out to the historic site yesterday and talked to a helpful young trader there. Also saw the puppet show which was good and Sam told us later that we laughed in all the expected places. It was so nice out there, I always forget how good it smells. The display centre has all been redone and is better than the old one. We sat on a bench for a while and watched all the raft flotillas float by on the river. I wrote in the visitor book "Knowledgable and friendly staff."
Looks like yesterday was our last nice summer day for a while. There was a big storm last night and it was cold today and is supposed to be cool and rainy till the weekend. Then Folkfest! We will have a small all-girl tarp this year. But all the girls want to be in the lineup in the mornings. We will have fun!

Speaking of pioneers, there's a good article on Laura Ingalls Wilder & her daughter in the New Yorker right now. Theresa has probably already read it.
