Mother Earth News Fair

Went to Puyallup, Wa for the Mother Earth News Fair and in order of what blew my mind:

  • the draft horses who logs with their owner - demonstration,  WOW, and the portable saw mill
  • the fibers information - spinning, TOUCHING, absorbing knowledge
  • the plate of sample cheese (I am still nibbling on) mostly soft with rinds Mmmm, Mmmmmm
  • lecture - rotation of pastures, wow! so do-able.  (I think lazy comes to mind if this isn't incorporated into animal husbandry), this will be used in the future!
I thoroughly enjoyed browsing and learning new information, thank you SO MUCH !

This has been a GOOD weekend with family and sad because my son in law is going to Iraq for a year. Bittersweet, hard to wrap my mind around it and this will be very hard on his family.  I'm very glad we can be there for them.

We also went to the Nisqually Estuary with the grandkids and had a great walk with them.  They love nature and are very inquisitive.
