The Cumberland Fair!!!

      Today we went to our first church in Maine, it was called West Falmouth Baptist Church. We enjoyed the service and the music was a nice blend of old hymns and current worship. However, we were the youngest couple there. :(  It was congregation included about 40 people (5 kids, one couple in their 30s, and the rest were over 70). We are going to try out another church next week. We feel we need a community of believers our age to grow.
       After church we went to the Fair. It was a super hot and humid day today, so we baking in the sun. The fair was smaller than ones back home. There were a few carnival rides, food stands and the rest was contests for best in show livestock. From huge Ox down to dwarf bunnies. We all enjoyed seeing the various animals. Samson's favorite was the "Old McDonald" petting zoo. We saw long eared goats, ducks, geese, hens, bunnies, and a little cow.
       It was a fun day!! Wish you all could be here with us! We love you all & you're in our hearts!
Until then..
