Sunday, February 7, 2016: GOP Presidential candidate Donald Trump will hold a campaign rally in Plymouth, NH at Plymouth State University at ALLWell North. The event is scheduled to begin at 1:00 PM EST.
Trump moves more inland today for an early rally, and again it's at a small venue.
Here's some interesting history.
This was the case in every New England state. The early settlers drove the Indians out physically during the Queen Anne's War. Plymouth was originally the site of an Abenaki village that was burned to the ground by Captain Thomas Baker in 1712.
In 1806, then-lawyer Daniel Webster lost his first criminal case at the Plymouth courthouse, which now houses the Historical Society. The author Nathaniel Hawthorne, while on vacation in 1864 with former U.S. President Franklin Pierce, died in Plymouth at the second Pemigewasset House, which was later destroyed by fire in 1909. In the early 20th century, the Draper and Maynard Sporting Goods Company (D&M) sold products directly to the Boston Red Sox, and players such as Babe Ruth would regularly visit to pick out their equipment.

Don’t laugh....it explains personalities.
My grandmother was interested in astrology and got me interested in it too.
I don’t swear by astrology, but I do know about it.. Cruz has lots of planets in Capricorn, Scorpio, and I think Virgo... m’eh...
Isn't Teddy a Sag?
Just thought the ‘moon’ part was amusing (since he got caught w/pants down, on CaucusGate)....not laughing at the overall theory.
Yes...that’s it...Yardley.
Are they still around?
So Gemini with Leo rising. What about the moon? He is air+fire and........
I don’t think that it can foretell the future, but if you know enough of the signs, it really DOES do a good job telling you about someone’s personality. :-)
I’m pretty sure I saw some Yardley soap at the Dollar Tree. They sell a lot of soaps you can’t find elsewhere. It’s weird lol. Like the Pear soap that’s the golden clear hypoallergenic type.
Oh...LOL
You can get it on Amazon. I know we can get it up here is some department stores and better pharmacies.
At a thrift shop the other day I saw an OLD bottle of Chantilly and just had to take a whiff ‘cause I wore it in the “olden days”. Immediately I time traveled 50 years to the lawn by my dorm in college. It’s weird how the sense of smell can just grab you and take you back.
Trump mentions cutting the fat as I open a bag of cheeseballs.
Oh, thanks! I’ll check it out...I have to go there for some retreat gift bags, etc.
It would bring back nice memories, if I find it.
Thanks, Judy!!
If you’re not going to vote Trump, don’t vote. LOL
Beatles REVOLUTION playing.....
....speaking of England ;)
Ted is a Capricorn..
lolo - he just sees EVERYTHING before it happens!
Found it! Yardley English Lavender.
Thanks much.
I think this was his best rally to date!
Dollar Tree also sells Maja. I used to stock up n Spain and it was sure more than a dollar.
