I’m just back from Woodstock, which I have re-named WOWstock because of the fabulous time we had there. First the organizers of the festival are just the nicest people – friendly, helpful and appreciative!! Secondly the show has a real “down home” feel about it. It feels like a festival for fleece.  There were fleeces of every kind and spinning wheels and animals and real food made by real people….I had oatmeal for breakfast!!<\/p>\n

Here are some pictures.<\/p>\n

This is the barn that housed the animals, but it also had old spinning equipment for sale.  This is 6:00AM – before the oatmeal.<\/p>\n

\nThis is the best I could do for the llamas, I think.  Alpacas are bigger aren’t they? or they could be babies.  Anyway, all the animals were penned so I had to take pictures through bars – metal bars that is.<\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\nIt was a knitting and spinning show with booths for rug hooking, weaving, basketry and other related crafts.  I couldn’t resist this one or this one<\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n

The picture is a little fuzzy but I think that he looks even woollier.  All in all it was a great show.  It will be the weekend after Canadian Thanksgiving next year. Think of booking it.<\/p>\n

Have a great day!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
