busy summer

It has been a  very busy summer.  Jim and I went

up to New York to visit friends after July 4th and had a wonderful time in the great Adirondack Park. 

Jeffrey and Lea Ann Rosenthal have a great cabin overlooking Sacandaga Lake in Mayfield,NY.  We

had such a great couple of days there, we stayed at the Melody Lodge in Speculator and then went to the Adirondack Museum in Blue Mountain Lake.  And of course we got up to the race track in Saratoga after stopping in to see Cathy and Rich Bennice, Jim's sister and her husband and were able to meet their new granddaughter Isabella, what a cutie !                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

                                                                    

Our art contest "Art in the Holler" is taking place at the Lake Lure Arts and Crafts Festival on Oct. 20, 2012.  We will be awarding our prizes  at 2 pm that day.  Look for the big tent and our sign. 

The Festival has sent out applications out to the elementary schools and middle schools in Rutherford County.  The applications have all the pertinent information on them.  Deadline for contest is October 12, and there is a drop off place at the Lake Lure Outreach office on Hwy 64/74. 

We hope we will have as many entrees as we did last year.  There will be 3 (1st) prizes of $25 Walmart giftcards, 3 (2nd) prizes of $10 Walmart giftcards, and 3 (3rd) prizes of assorted art supplies.

We are looking forward to seeing the beautiful entrees.  Last year it was such a sight to have them posted all around the small smoking barn.
