Sad about the rain, Carl.  It poured here in Honeoye Falls most of Friday 
afternoon.  I got lucky this year.  Saturday was the only day I could go, 
and it was the day to be there.  I know some tractors and fleas were pulled 
out both Thur. night and on Friday, but there was enough left on Saturday to 
make a really good show.   Saturday morning, we had to pick where we walked, 
but by later in the day, everything was pretty well dried up.
