How good is this, here we are bustling around packing and generally sorting things out to go down to the Snowy Mountains, and we receive the following photos from our friends Lois and Glenn of their trip this weekend to Chester, New Hampshire.
The Brig and I lived there from May 1976, for 5 plus super years and we loved this tiny New England village, our good friends Paula and Romy and daughter Wendy were our neighbours are still there. We were living in Chester when the Village celebrated their 250th Anniversary, and we still have the little souvenir jugs and those plates - just haven't been able to move them on for all kinds of sentimental reasons.
Anyway apparently Chester now has its own Scarecrow Festival just in time for Halloween this coming weekend.

And photos of Chester College - Arts now.
Thanks Lois and Glenn - just love revisiting Chester in any way.
Frank has just told me that while we are in Sydney (en route to the Snowy) the "Sculpture by the Sea" starts at Bondi on October 28th - so we will walk around it again like we did with you guys last time - camera at the ready - how great is that.
