Saturday was the 25th Annual Goat Day event in Blountstown. You pay $5 to get in and then all the kids stuff is free. (The first couple years you got in free but had to pay for everything. Not sure which is better!??
The kids look forward to it every year.
Tamara's favorite part was the pony rides.
Yes, they have goats there! :)
Look who I spotted climbing the rock wall!! :)
We took a horse & buggy ride.....
and walked through lots of vendors stands!
The Panhandle Pioneer Settlement is just through the woods from the park and they also have an event during the same time~ Pioneer Days
Mrs. Alma and her two daughters were in the Frink gym quilting...
and a few ladies were knotting a comfort.
I always love to stop and listen to the musicians on the porch of the gym. This year there were more than normal. It was usually just women playing!
Singing and playing~
A pretty display by the smokehouse.
Ms. Lawanna making her famous pork cracklin's! :) Mmmmm!!
A view of the pines while I was waiting on my sweet hubby to bring me a drink! :)
More of the grounds~
The kids and a kid! ;)
Making corn cob flyers~
More pickin' and singing on the porch of the Wells Cabin.
An interesting stand....the kids got to type out their name in Morse code and then got a certificate for it! :) They had all sorts of old communication tools....
Brewing coffee
Dan bought a cup of boiled peanuts. They were HUGE!!!
Back to the park.....Zoo World was doing an animal show.
The kids didn't participate in the greased pig or the chicken chase this year. Or the coin dig.
After we left, we still had an anniversary drop in to attend and then a night in Panama.....pics coming later. Time to get school started and begin my 31 Days to Clean challenge!! :)
Great pictures! Looks like a really fun time!
