Rainy this morning but stopped late morning. Around 1:00 we headed into Skowhegan and went to the horse show at the Skowhegan Fair Grounds. All Morgans. What beautiful horses! Fun to watch. Warm today—mid-70s. Back home and hung out. Will probably go back again tomorrow. The fairgrounds are small but really nice. They have a huge grandstand set up for harness racing I think. The show we saw was in one of the smaller pavilions.
Wednesday, July 4

A beautiful, sunny, warmer morning. I got up early—6:30. Played my new Monopoly game for a while on the computer. We sat outside and read all morning. I was exhausted from changing my clothes so many times. First in sweats and a sweatshirt. Then in shorts and a sweatshirt. Then in shorts and a tube top. Then in shorts and a tee shirt. Then in shorts and a sweatshirt. Then in sweats and a sweatshirt. Full circle. Finally went inside it was getting so cool and drizzily. Worked on my Spanish for about an hour. Didn’t even go see the fireworks. Had steaks, mashed potatoes, and a vegetable for dinner tonight. We plan on going to see the horse show in Skowhegan tomorrow, but we’re also supposed to get a couple inches of rain. So, we’ll see.
