Chapter Twenty-Two - Ollie

Ollie

Oliver steered the tractor into the dirt parking lot near the fair. He had to park all the way in the back because it was so busy. It seemed like everybody in town was there.

“I had no idea it would be so popular,” he said, as he turned off the engine. “This must be the thing to do when the weather gets nice.”

“Oh, it is,” Elsie said. “It's a pretty big deal. I'm willing to bet that nearly every single person in town is here. Don't be surprised if I run into people that I know that want to talk my ear off. If anyone asks, you're a friend from college.”
