We woke up silly early this morning, and despite the family moaning and the rain pouring down, we went to our first ever
country fair. On the way, we stopped for rainboots and umbrellas as only we would do. We sat on bleachers and watched a sheep show that was out of this world, paraded through deep and muddy puddles squealing, oohed and ahhed over the handcrafted exhibits, petted handspun alpaca, ate black bean brownies, admired pumpkin twins and award-winning indian corn, and laughed at crazy clowns zooming around on motorcycles. Country fairs are where it's at. Even when it's raining cats and dogs.
I returned home itching to bake and knit and search local farms for sale. Never hurts to dream my Amish dream a little. :)

Barb and I were there today, and so was Erinkate. Totally freezing and wet, but still fun.
Did you see my knitting and baking?
I wish we had stuff like this near here... looks like it was a lot of fun, even in the rain!
