DURING THE KIDS’ pedal tractor pull competition at Addison County Fair and Field Days this past Thursday morning, cousins Charlie Lussier, Connor Hillman and Henry Lussier of Cornwall found a high spot for watching the young athletes turn their engines. Fortunately for the spectators behind them, the trio laid down on the table so as not to obstruct the view.
