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.

I couldn't remember which FReeper came up with it, so kudos to you. Trump listens to the people. How exciting is that? Remind him of that when you ask for invitations for yourself, and your FReeper FRiends to the Inauguration. Also, if his 757 could take us there, it would be extra nice.
Didn’t know that about Hillary. Moon in pieces is not good, or am I wrong?
LOL....well that’s VERY believable ! :-)
Oh...that one - another memory from the past. The black label on the bottle. I don’t remember the fragrance much only that it was not my preferred choice and yes, my mom at one time had this on her vanity. Taboo Sultry name strong fragrance

It’s VERY bad; especially for her sun in Scorpio! SHE FIGHTS WITH HERSELF! LOL
I'm a Virgo, moon in Scorpio, Gemini rising. :-)
Moon in Pisces..Well, I don’t usually get along with them.
Maybe it’s all that water trying to drown my air sign, Gemini.
