Well there are advantages and disadvantages to Adam now being in New England. He is closer to home and he is closer to home! Therefore, on Sat. 8/11 we drove to a small blueberry farm in Becket , Ma. to pick him up and bring him to Evergreen Berry Farm in Ct. for James and Christina's engagement party( his roomies).

 It was an easy drive and then we all had a wonderful time at their party.
