Tie-tasting and tong-fed watermelon in Hutchinson..its all the rage!

We picked up the two girls Maddalena (age 7) and Carolina (age 10) from school, along with Francesca (A.K.A. “Frankie,”  2 yrs)  and Anselm (A.K.A.”Handsome,” 7 months) and headed to Reno County for a campaign event at The Hutchinson Town Club. “Handsome” is teething so he was a bit cranky. He spent most of the night being passed from one man to another sampling different colored ties. I think he liked the pebble weaved texture of Richard Chambers (our gracious host) the best!  We met lots of wonderful people including a very entertaining oncologist, owners of a local dry cleaners, bankers, and even a happy pair of newlyweds! It was a wonderful night and we can’t wait to get back there to visit some of the spectacular attractions
