Yesterday was the peak of Antrim’s 8th Annual Home and Harvest Day event… a parade, skateboarding, crafts and food along Main Street, a corn on the cob eating contest and much more. The day ends with a chicken barbecue, concert and fireworks at the Tenney Farm; the headliner for this years concert was Luther “Guitar Junior” Johnson, a Chicago bluesman who lives in the Antrim area.
Joan and I spent the entire day “downtown”. We delivered the apple crisp that Joan made at the behest of her cousin Liz to the Antrim Historical Society booth just before 9 AM. We ended the day with chicken (cooked by Joan’s cousin John) and the concert/fireworks. We arrived home — very tired — just about 9 PM.
While Joan made herself “useful” at the apple crisp stand, I, as you might imagine, spent the day roaming with my camera.
Here are the photos:

Frank,
This move to North Country has certainly expanded your horizons – not one damsel fly among the portfolio!
There are a few keepers in your “free skaters” and some of the kid close-ups are special.
