Bunnies Galore

Had a satisfying, heartwarming, fulfilling day of art, sunshine and . . . bunnies. Who could ask for more? Started the day at the fairgrounds under warm, sunny skies in a spot with a perfect view of the gazebo, a peek-a-boo view through to Saratoga Passage and Camano, and herds of munching bunnies.

Rides at the Fair

Sue and I sat in the bleachers overlooking the fair activities. It was visual overload for me and took some time to sift through it all. A fun time all in all at the fair, especially looking at the critters.

Baaaaaack at the Fair

Kris and I set up to sketch at a table in the sheep barn at the fair Friday afternoon. We apparently looked like official 4Hers because we were asked many questions - like, "Do sheep bite?" We were also repeatedly asked to stamp some card that kids were getting stamped at each animal exhibit. It was tempting . . .we had paintbrushes in hand. The sheep barn at dinner time is hysterical. We were squealing with laughter at the all the riotous "Baa!"-ing from every kind of sheep voice. Some of them sounded exactly like people imitating sheep.
