** avoid the rush**Plan your picnic (Stratham: wedding, to buy, live)

[Yankeehombre]

Its time to buy your picnic basket, leaving enough time for nice people @ UPS to get it to you, and for you to pick up the table cloth. Wait for May to buy the 'May wine' [its spiced W cinnamon + other things that can only be bought in May, I wasn't suggesting a may vintage.]Throw some birdseed in your picnic basket. Birds love a picnic too, especially sea gulls. Isle of Shoals is a great place for that activity, or the top of Stratham hill park view for miles around, or the sea wall in Odiorne S.Park, or Mt. Major overlooking Winnepisaukee. mt.Agemeticus in York ME, if you're not up for a climb. You can drive up there.

Okay, we have two picnic kits we got as wedding presents. After all the cups and utensils and stuff, how do you have room for all that food?? Sounds so yummy, but we'd need a big cooler to transport it all!
