Sam and his host family went to the Farmer's Market! Every Thursday in spring and summer, one block on the town square is roped off for foot traffic only and local people bring lots of fresh, wonderful things for sale! We found our friends who raise fresh honey and they gave each of the kids a yummy honey stick. Sam liked the fresh flowers- so pretty and pink!

Sam was very excited to go to a play in the park today! It was put on by the community theater, with all the parts acted out by local teens and tweens. They did a fabulous job! Sam enjoyed snuggling on the blanket with the other TVs and the host family.

Sam, the other TVs, and the host family all visited the Great Plains Nature Center in Wichita, Kansas. Sam liked the aquarium full of native fish, he could have watched that for hours!

After work, host mom stopped to show Sam and the other TVs the Wayne Garrett Children's Garden! This garden was on land that was donated to and planted by the children involved in the local after school program. It is named after the husband of a beloved elementary school teacher; the husband was a farmer who was killed in a tractor accident

Host mom took Sam and the other TVs to water the garden with her, and they stopped off at the old coach house for some pictures on the way. Sam thought morning glories in the morning are, well, glorious! The coach house is lovely, too!

Sam and the other TVs got to visit the doctor's office today, so the doctor could have a look in B's sore ear. Sam could smell so many different and fascinating things... so much for a clever puppy to explore!!

Coffee break time! Someone brought a lovely 4th of July brownie cake with white frosting, then blueberries and strawberries, to create an American flag pattern, so host mom took a piece for a coffee break snack at work! Yum!

Sam was very excited to go to a gathering of families. The kids seemed to have so much fun in the pool, and the fireworks were loud but exciting!
