We saw some of the fireworks in Dover NH last night. This morning Linda and I took Bud out for a drive. First time I have driven him off the property, we went across the road thru the school yard and up Lebanon road a ways then out a dirt road for a ways and then turned around and came back. I dont know who was more nervous, me, Linda or Bud. We made it fine. There were some cows in a pasture which Bud became a little antsy about especially when one cow decided to trot down the fence line watching us. Then there was a big canoe on someones lawn that Bud thot was a monster.... but all in all things went well, we had motorcycles, cars, trucks towing a trailer, a bicycle go by us some at slow speed some moving right along but Bud handled it all well. We had a good time. Then we worked in the woodshop, cooked out on the grill, went to Dairy Queen for Lindas favorite Blizzard, now back home, Linda is back in woodshop trying to finish up a project before she leaves..... Her Dad may have to buy her a scroll saw for Christmas maybe.... she really enjoys making stuff. Only 2 days left....... :(
