Fair season

September weekends were busy with fairs. The local county fair and the Common Ground Country Fair overlap, so we devoted one Saturday morning to each. The girls loved them both! They were most excited about seeing and petting the animals. I was most excited to visit the fiber tent at Common Ground with Phaedra, but I managed not to make any yarn purchases.


Unfortunately, I didn't take any pictures at Common Ground because we were busy feeding sheep, listening to music, sliding down hills, watching sheepdogs, eating falafel, and buying apples. We did get to meet up with Phaedra, and see her put her pin on the world map to show that she had come all the way from New Zealand.


The Franklin County Fair had fewer people, but just as much fun. See below!
