I meet the nicest people on my message board, including Val who lives about an hour from me.  She alerted me to a Celtic Festival in NC this weekend.  I love doing new things and I feel like for many years of our lives we could not do them because of my weekend work schedules. 

It was brisk, but sunny.  We watched some sheep dogs directing both sheep and,

 

 

um, ducks.  Does that make them duckdogs?

 

This is me meeting Val, who was dressed for the event.

We did a lot of browsing, but didn’t buy much. 

We tried a plate with (Americanized) haggis, shepherd’s pie, and some beef.

The girls got some crepes from a food truck.

John was enthralled by the highland cows.

 

 

And Katriel brought a cow home!
