Springs Festival 2013

It was a beautiful day at the Springs Festival in Springs, PA.

We went early so we could stop at yard sales on the way home.

And, to beat the heat!

This is supposed to be a "fall" festival but it was 

well into the 80's.  

These little guys (above) made it possible to get the grand-girls some really soft, cuddly bears for a Christmas gift.

Note:  After doing some research (after I had purchased the bears) I found that in order to make the bears below, the alpaca had to be deceased.  ***SAD FACE!!!***  But I also learned that the alpaca is a very valuable animal and it is against the law to kill them.  So their pelts are used after they have died from natural causes....   But still.  This makes me sad.  I was under the impression that they were shorn and their fur was used to make the bears.   I would love to own an alpaca.  They are sweet, wonderful animals.  But I have no desire to own one's fur who has died :-(

In honor of our friends...  the beautiful alpaca's.  

Homemade bread, apple butter, maple sugar candy...  all kinds of goodies.  

A nice day!

Just Some Stuff

Well, today we close the pool for the season :-(

I connected my Iphone to Itunes and I must have pushed a wrong button because it wiped everything on my phone out.   Then when I tried to restore it I was taken back to a year ago.  Still, a lot is wiped away.  

Luckily, I had pulled Gracie's birthday pictures off first. 

 This was her celebration:

Back to my phone dilemma...

I was so frustrated with dropped calls with AT&T - so when my Iphone was wiped out it was the straw that broke the camels back.

I headed over to US Cellular and got me a brand new Android Galaxy S 4.

I have 2 weeks to take it back if I don't like it.  

So far, it's a keeper!

"GRACIE! "

"WALLY DID IT."
