Labor Day 2023

I took the morning to have fun with Kathy at the fairgrounds for the Arts and Crafts festival. We walked around all the booths and looked at the vendors. We each bought something. I bought a coaster that looks like a giant chocolate chip cookie! Also bought 3 bars of soap. It is the exact brand that I buy at at Barbara Ann’s at the mall – only instead of $8 each I got 3 for $10! So it was a great bargain and I know I’ll use them.

this is the coolest coaster!
my soaps!

One booth was selling stuffed animal lights. My favorites were the pink poodle, the M&M, Woodstock and Snoopy. And a 1776 tee shirt!

Isn’t this just CUTE??

Look at the BACK!!!

We sat down in the pavilion and had French Fries with gravy and listened to a band. Don’t know the name of the band, but they did Margaritaville (Jimmy Buffet) and Daydream Believer (Monkees).

Look at the view!

I dropped Kathy at home and then started laundry. I finished the day as LABOR DAY! While that was washing I went outside and started pulling weeds. I did along the white fence up my driveway, then the front walk, both sides. It was very warm and humid. I tired myself out and didn’t get to cut the grass. Maybe tomorrow. Wow, that heat wears a person totally OUT! I don’t know how Ron does it in Florida when the ‘feels like’ is often 104*!!!!

Look! A leaf fossil! Well, maybe just an imprint…

Kelly sent me a picture of Peyton’s steer – Brandon. Ma (Peyton’s other grama) made a curtain for the stall. Brandon weighed in just 10 pounds over the required weight. We’ll see who buys it this year.

Brandon is laying down in the middle.
Curtain with cows on it!

Yesterday I went to a picnic at Mary’s house. She has a lovely patio with a nice covered area, and a fire pit in the back. I knew most of the people there from previous events. It was a nice afternoon with just enough breeze to be comfortable!

TOMORROW September 5th is:

National Be Late for Something Day (this could be Mary’s day!); National Cheese Pizza Day; National Another Look Unlimited Day.

I like that last one. Maybe look it up and see why… Tomorrow — we have to go back to work. I had a four day weekend! Wow! God bless…
