This morning Sherry and I drove to Plant City to the Florida Strawberry Festival. Met up with the end of a parade.
We followed the parade to the festival grounds. These little girls were the last group in the parade.
Our number one priority was the Quilting exhibit, where Sherry had two quilts on display.
Both of Sherry's entries got blue ribbons!
Second priority was strawberries with cake and whipped cream.
Then on to the other exhibits.
Black smithing and chair caning.
I always like to see the farm animals. But they have taken most of the fun out of the animal exhibits by putting the animals behind fences and not allowing us to pet them. Even the strawberry festival has lawyers now.
These cows were tied up by mistake where visitors could get to them. We heard an announcement later telling the exhibitors to move their cows.
I think this little girl was lucky not to get stepped on.
There were plants as well as animals.
Nonmetal chickens. Wish I could have recorded the crowing. It was almost deafening.
Here's what I needed when I was working on the hole.
There were a lot of cool rides ...
but I couldn't get Sherry to go on them.
