The flood at Riverview Farm

This is a self portrait of Mr. Frank Drew, who was quite a photographer,and  developing his own pictures.  He's pictures usually told a story with that Yankee humor he had.  Living most his life at Riverview Farm on Nute rd, one year there was more then usual rain fall. That  year it flooded the field and crossed the road. So in typical Mr. Drew humor, he's going to have a picnic on his boat on the flooded area.  Come Tomorrow Night, November 1, at 6:00 at the Town Hall to learn more about our Unique residents and our towns history. It is a potluck, everyone is invited.
