September 10-15
We visited this museum in Wausau when our friends Steve and Gwynne came from Arizona.
We highly recommend it and we look forward to future visits.
On September 12th, we went with our friends, Gwynne and Steve to the Wisconsin Sheep and Wool Festival in Jefferson, Wisconsin. So much to see and do!! People spinning yarn, weaving and felting and every color and type of yarn you can imagine all in 2 huge barns. Vendors and demonstrations, classes and beautiful finished items, too. Jonathon bought a gorgeous alpaca jacket and gloves.
September 19th - Art in the Park - A perfect day to walk around the park and look at pottery, baskets, quilts, jewelry, bird feeders and every kind of art and craft imaginable. I met the woman who owns the Old Victorian Farmhouse and had the opportunity to see her handmade quilts. She gave me an invitation to their Open House in October!! We bought a bird feeder and some pottery.
September 20th - Woodcarving Show! This was inspiring!!! Talked to a lot of the carvers and we bought a few small items. We were all impressed with the fine details of their work and all the different styles of carving wood. Mom bought a feather pin for Jo; hand carved and painted to look exactly like a feather. It made me want to learn to carve.
We met the Critter Gitter this month!! LOL. We hired him to get rid of the mice we'd been hearing in the walls and between the floors. Turned out to be a month long project, but extremely thorough. He does an inspection and locates all the openings in your house where critters can get in and then seals everything tight; whether its carpentry, replacing a vent or garage door seal...he repairs or replaces it. Sets traps and when there is no more activity his job is done! We are impressed so far!
