    There was activity galore at the Olde Schoolhouse Commons in Lambertville on Saturday. Above right, Betty Smith of Temperance takes some yarn for a spin. Activities weren't just for the young at heart, but for the young in age too. Zack Davis, 5, of Lambertville is among the youths who found that decorating a pumpkin is a great way to welcome fall.
