My parents were in town, which is always fun. Saturday we headed down to Providence, where we enjoyed the last night of [WaterFire](http://www.waterfire.org), a sculpture of bonfires on the rivers of Providence. It was really cool and entertaining.

We stopped at [Shelburne Farm](http://www.shelburnefarm.com/) in Stow, where Emmett seemed to thoroughly enjoy the farm animals, a big mound of hay, chewing on pumpkin stems (ugh) and riding tractors like a true farmer.
