Hello Friends of the Road,

I hope you are all doing well. I saw signs of the times tonight as I had to turn on lights earlier in the evening, and saw some colored leaves on neighbor’s trees. Not mine though! I’m glueing them on the branches and painting each one green. So enjoy the season before it passes us by. I do enjoy this cooler weather and the ability to have windows open more. 

We had a good turnout at the recent car tour in Clarendon. I think we had almost 30 participants! We were able to find some good shade at most stops, as it was a fairly hot day. Everyone left knowing a lot more of the local history and now when I drive down those roads I pay more attention to some of the old structures. Thank you Robert Underhill of the Clarendon Historical Society for all your preparations and lectures. Loyal attendee Rebecca Hougher shared some great pictures she took at the event. You can view them HERE. Back on the subject of the Clarendon Historical Society, if you haven’t seen the Clarendon Historical’s website, you should. It has by far more information than any other local historical society I’ve seen. It even competes with the Vermont Historical Society, and they have a LOT more area to cover!

In my last newsletter, I shared information about David Ordway thanks to Elaine Purdy. In response to my email, Historian Bill Powers shared another article about David. It is attached for your reading pleasure. Thanks Bill!

Quickly arriving is our next outing for the year. This one is another car tour, so at least part of the time you can spend in the air conditioning if it is hot.

Our one and only Tom Hughes will kick off the event with one of his entertaining, passionate speeches, so don’t show up late!

We also were fortunate to sign up a couple new members at the last outing. It is always fun meeting new fans of history. Hopefully we’ll have some newcomers again this Saturday. Until we meet again, be well and keep reading about history!
