Perfect day in that weather was sunny, not too hot. Only one person called and Cn'd last minute and one person was about 1/2 hr late (we waited 15 min for him but went ahead with the tour and he caught up) Toured in side and out side of the Stickley Craftsman Farm. Pete was a perfect tour guide (may even join GO we hope). He knew every little detail about Stickley, the family, the furniture, the land, etc. a real super guide. After the tour most of us went to lunch at near by famous Morris Plains Arthur’s Pub. Great service, great food, super company with lots of great conversation. Once again, everyone enjoyed, got along very well, made new friends, etc. Everyone is looking forward to the next local event next weekend at the Delware River Picnic!
