Ah Monday, what a wonderful, sunny day -- whoops, I see dark clouds forming -- what the hell, we had rain yesterday, today is to be dry, right?

Hey, I know you know the St. Lawrence County Fair begins this week, starting tomorrow the rides will be open at 5 pm. but before that there's plenty of things to see and do, including the 4-H Horse Show. And by all means, stroll through the Youth Building and be amazed at what these industrious young people have learned and done throughout the year -- I'm telling ya, you will be amazed. So get off your lazy butts and go to the Fair -- have some adult memories to go with those childhood days at the fair -- each memory is a treasure.
