I follow Angela

Anywhere she goes! She is my cruise director,  I am her co-pilot. This time we were off on a two plus hour trip to the 2013 Rhinebeck Sheep & Wool Festival in upstate New York. Natalie accompanied us and provided comic relief.

 

First, we did some people watching!

That IS a gentleman in a kilt.

Now, remember that only Angela plays with wool. I have often thought of saving and spinning the poodle fur that I get cut off of Chase (and previous poodles) but it has never really happened. Imagine how many poodles and how many lifetimes I would need for one, multicolored sweater.

 

LOOK AT ALL OF THE PEOPLE! and this is just some of them.

Did I mention that this festival is not on the weight watcher approved list?
Natalie and Angela shared their artichoke French and Fried delights with me...yum. Artichoke is a vegetable! What's not to approve?
