It was a small one and a bit lower cost than most of them. It was fun though. I was tempted buy a bottle of wine, but I ended up buying a homemade resin bracelet that was very affordably priced. I have seen these before and they are about 15.00. She was selling them for 6. If I wasn't in a cash crunch right now due to the car buying I might have gotten one for my mother for Mother's Day. They also have a museum on the grounds and they had an original Edison phonograph and stereoscope!!

It was nice. I was worried it might be too hot, but it was partly cloudy and breezy so not bad.

I think we made it up to 62 here, but it didn't last long. No sun all day long, just off and on rain and a few thunderstorms, they didn't last long. I am dreading the summer heat, I don't do well when it's blazing hot outside.

It would be. I should have taken a card from that lady. I could have gotten one at a later date. There is someone in a city near the mountains here who makes jewelry out of local gemstones, which I thought would be neat, but they are high end pieces, out of my price range. Actually, someone from the festival emailed me to get some more info. I could probably find out from them who she was, and arrange to meet.

@snowy22315 - That would be fine if you can find her and arrange a meeting.

It is like a view master. It allows you to see magnified images , it's an optical device from the 1800's.
