Susan on the Farm

Our camp spot just down the hill

Susan and I went to New Hampshire for Stacey and Justin's wedding this past weekend. They are friends of ours that moved from Salt Lake a couple of years ago to Boston. After a red eye flight through Newark into Manchester we had lunch with some old family friends of Susans in Manchester on friday. Then it was off to Justin's parents farm near Lee, NH.

The wedding festivities took place on the farm and it was a blast. There was a cookout on friday night and a lot of us just camped on the farm right down the hill from the polo field where the reception tent was set up.

The wedding itself was at a Quaker church 3 miles from the farm, afterwards a good number of us rode bikes (including the bride and groom) to the farm for the reception. The reception was good, great food, a live bluegrass band, plenty of dancing as well some bike races on the grass (Billy's idea). The next morning they had a nice breakfast set up and Justin's dad took a few of us on a hayride tour of the farm. It is a fascinating place of around 250 acres, one of the highlights was a barn that was constructed in the 1830s.

Sunday was our anniversary so Susan and I headed up to the Maine coast for some sightseeing and an early dinner. Sunday night we stayed with Billy and Katie, who live right by Kennebunkport. Then next morning Billy and Katie took me biking on some of the local trails and then it was back to the airport.
