Day 44

Getting a very early start we headed south to Lakeville to catch the Newfs in Ring B at 8:30AM.

 

  Meeting up with the NCNE folk, it was like old-home week, finally putting faces to names, visiting with Linda, Todd, Sue, and the coast hopping Ingrid. Shopping stalls abounded with newf creations, so we left with the RV heavier than before.

After a quick lunch, we drove west on the Mass Pike to Sturbridge Village. A treat for the kids was a hands-on demonstration of 18th Century toys. They had a tough time working the rolling hoops, but it was fun trying.

 

  Sam's mechanical mind was whirling with all the mills they had - the belt-driven carding mill, the wheel-run grain mill, and the busily working saw mill.

 After an afternoon at the Village, it was off to the Outdoor World Sturbridge Resort for dinner and a long session of dual-slide playground.
