Music & Dancing at the second stage
Traditional Blacksmithing
Daaaadddddyyyy! PLEASEEEEE!(I didn't get her the train but I did get a handmade cypress car. She loved it and kept trying to roll it in the dirt/dust)
Walking the arts & crafts booths
I can hoola-hoop, too!Making file (fee-lay) with Lionel Key, Jr.
(for those of you unfamiliar with file it's made from sassafras leaves and used as a thickening agent in Gumbo)
Mr. Key was kind enough to give us the finished product that Annie helped to make. Some of you may recognize him from Alton Brown's Feasting on Asphalt 2: The River Run. If your into gumbo you've got to try this file. A little goes a long way. Check out www.unclebillspices.com for more information on this unique tradition.
As with the last festival her eyes were closing as we were driving out of the parking lot.
Great Day! We miss you Daddy!
