For sixty-odd years the Swamp Yankees in Ashaway have been putting on a "Huck Finn Day" in the park.  

Fishing with bamboo poles in the pond, free burgers and hotdogs for the kids, water-balloon toss, obstacle course, games.

So I ventured out with a great white sail of a bandage on my face, and we met Charles, Patty and the girls by the carnival games.
