An Interesting Day at Martintown

Hi there! How are you doing? Well, I hope. We had an interesting day at the Martintown Mall yesterday. Fill your coffee mug, nudge a virtual treat or two onto your plate and I'll tell you about it. 

The morning was kind of slow. Not many people out and about but then suddenly we heard the skirl of bagpipes. Two pipers, a man and a woman, came out of the shop next to us, crossed the street and walked up to the house across from the Mill. They stopped at the front door and began playing the pipes again right in front of the door. When the fellow who owns the house opened the door to see what was going on, he discovered that the pipers were a couple of relatives from Scotland on a surprise visit. Needless to say, everyone around had stopped to watch the goings on.


Then, in early afternoon, a fellow in a pickup truck pulled into the drive in front of the Mill. He was carrying a couple of huge squash. The smaller one weighed 700 pounds while the big one weighed in at 1000 pounds! Gi-norous! Here's Nong posing next to the big fellas...





Now the market is all over till next June!

See ya, eh!
