On Saturday Wanda and I had a blast visiting with our up-county voters in Horicon and Thurman at the annual Brant Lake pancake breakfast and duck race and Thurman Fall Farm Tour. The breakfast at the Horicon Firehouse was delicious and a fantastic way to start the day. It was great to see some of our many supporters again and hear their encouraging words. Thank you Horicon for hosting another great event.
Thurman has provided Wanda and I with a lot of wonderful memories this campaign. We enjoyed Jax Wax and maple syrup in the spring, square danced, listened to great music and watched fireworks in the summer and toured the many farms in the fall. Along the way we have met some incredibly industrious and kind people. We had hoped to make the Queensbury football game but we're just having too much fun in Thurman to leave. The ladies of the quilting club had us in stitches. It was also nice to meet Irv West and talk about some of the issues facing our troubled youth. I'm looking forward to reading his book "Breaking the Rules". We also were happy to attend a "barn party" in support of Double H Hole in the Woods. Thank you Thurman for always making us feel welcome.
We were also proud to be able to show our support for the Y.F.A.K. Fundraiser. Yvonne, Frank, Andy and Kieran lost everything in a recent fire in Glens Falls. It was sad to hear of the loss of their pets. We then joined our son Owen and his friends at the West Mountain Ski Center for some homecoming dance pictures. Thank you Sara and Spencer Montgomery for being great hosts. We then attended a comedy show with our fellow elks at the Elks Lodge.
Sunday, we spent the day with Owen watching his Lacrosse team go undefeated in a tournament in Guilderland. The boys looked great! Thank you everyone for the continued kind words of support. #EveryFamilyMatters
