The day dawned bright and shiny for the 105th annual Farmers and Merchants picnic. A nice day brings out the crowd for the downtown parade (see Ada Icon parade photos on Monday evening), the picnic, the entertainment, free swimming, and a day of visiting  friends and neighbors at Ada War Memorial Park. In a way, the F&M is like a community reunion since many of those who moved away return to visit those they have known.
