Old Thresher Reunion
Today is the first day of the annual Old Thresher Reunion. We went to the square to see if the typical stuff was there again this year and actually saw something new! Well, perhaps not new, but I hadn't noticed it before, and it reminded me of my daughter and her talents for making neat things!
There was a booth that was selling sea salts with fragrance (like I get from my daughter) for 2 for $15. Since there was lilac that actually smells like lilac I had to get some. Now I just need to remember to tell my oldest daughter that that would make a really cool Christmas gift! (Hint). The white linen or whatever she usually gives me is wonderful too (another hint). I love that stuff!!
It will be interesting to see how many people go to the grounds today, I will be working the gate ticket booth from 3 - 6:30 so would assume that I'll get a feel for the turn out. Tomorrow is from 7 - 11 AM and then working with the Rotary on ushering at the show tomorrow night.
Friday is off to Des Moines to get utilities going in our new office. We got the office furniture yesterday, they will be delivering and setting up on the 5th. I called to get a quote to put and ad in the Register for help wanted, good grief! It's nearly $1000!!!!!! Gotta come up with an alternative, like maybe the website, gotta be cheaper than that…Monster here I come!
