The setting for it was ideal. Beautiful barns and other outbuildings. The pasteurs and surrounding land is green and serene. Unfortuantely the wind was howling so I honestly think there was a chill factor.It was dark and very damp but the rain had stopped for a short while. There weren't many vendors or exhibitors and a lot of those who where there had packed up early and left.It would seem as those most of the others were about spinning and roving. No good yarn except for one place that was outrageously expensive. I was only there for about an hour, if that. All in all, it was very disappointing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24352366.post-1159536481617784112006-09-29T09:28:00.000-04:002006-09-29T09:28:00.000-04:00Oooh! religious medals would be good!

Well, maybe for the challenge, too, but I was responding to K's comment. <BR/><BR/>I'm rambling, aren't I? <BR/><BR/>After spending a few days in Wisconsin, I'm ready to start my challenge (I made sketches during meetings) and I'm going for challenge supplies after work today.
