Woodstock, Here We Come
No, not that Woodstock!
Woodstock, CT where the annual fair is held over Labor Day weekend.
A perfect place for us to take in the sights while enjoying a wide variety of food and happenings.
Arriving shortly after opening, the first display we wanted to see was that of small equipment.
Very impressive...especially the equipment that made shingles. Seeing the 1889 patent date made me a tad skeptical yet it was amazing and they piled up quickly!
Corn grinders churned away as the the steam rose above the pots of bubbling water. From what we were told, just about everyone had one of those back in the day.
Painting absolutely beautiful scenes, this artist seemed undaunted by the crowd gathered around him. Peeking over his shoulder, I noticed his hand was so incredibly steady as he placed the brush on his mirror canvas.
Oh, to be talented!!
Is this guy AWESOME or what?
Makes me want to go back to the beach and start digging...:)

This week is our towns fair and it's a VERY busy week for me at work as I do a lot of baking for it.
