Old Traditions Die Hard

When we were in Ohio, the missionaries asked our kids to tell one of our family traditions. They couldn't think of anything. :) I was thinking that some of our favorite traditions were dependent on our location. For example, every year I took the kids to Black Island Farms for Halloween, Festival of Trees in Dec., and the Davis Co. Fair in Aug. Luckily, we have a huge list of things to do and see here in NY and PA. We'll see which ones become traditions. The Corning Factory is nearby, and I've heard that the kids can try glass blowing and make a bowl or something. That sounds like a contender. Also, we're in the Palmyra Temple district, so it will be hard to get a babysitter to watch the kids long enough for the drive and the session. So, we thought that occasionally we can get a hotel room, take turns going to a session, and go to the Sacred Grove and the Smith homestead, etc. Anyway, here's a last look (for now) at the Davis County Fair this last Aug.
