More Country Living

Here's some of the view from my little corner of the Country Living Fair. Here are some photos of some of the whimsical carvings of my neighbor to the left, Al Longo. I would leave these Santas on display all year! My neighbor to the front is Virginia LaChance, who attracts a big crowd with her spinning wheel. My mom bought a birdhouse from Virginia and her husband Rick, that will be in a special place in her garden.
My mom left today for her home in Wisconsin, so I'm alone with my display for Sunday and Monday. So, I won't be able to investigate all the great things that are going on, including the yummy smells and food samples! The grub at the concession stand is good, let me tell you. I'll bring provisions for eating and drinking, and I'm hoping for friends to come by and give me a little break while I run to the port-o-let! Angela and her husband came by today.
One of my favorite images is the one I see when I take my bathroom breaks--it's an effigy of jewelry designer Stacey Porter's ex-husband, stuffed and buried by Stacey's boyfriend. My mom really got a kick out of it too, and can relate, as she is about to lose 200+ pounds of dead weight!
