Saturday Day Trip

Last week....

We made a trip to two libraries in one day. Here is our display of our son's interests at the moment for schooling/learning.

 I made homemade naan bread to go with a spicy dinner we had one eve.

 And this little guy no bigger than my pinkie nail was in my garden bed walking around.

 Saturday Day Trip.

Our first time to the state fair. Our son said it was worth it for the pigeons but it was pouring rain. So much that there were many flooded areas of the fairgrounds and our feet got soaked literally up to our shins at a few points. But who is going to let rain stop the fun? We looked at the art building, the shopping-for sale building and of course what we came for- the agricultural building. All the rides were closed as well as most of the food places due to the pour down. But we only really came for one thing...and that was so our son could see different pigeon breeds, take photos of ones he liked so that he can learn more information about them and be able to purchase and show pigeons here next year and at other shows through the year. The best part of visiting the pigeons was that the head of the pigeon club we just joined for the state was there and we got to chat with him for quite a while. He had been raising pigeons as a hobby from the age of 12...and now he is 72. A wealth of information and happy to share it with our son. We are looking forward to the clubs meeting and swap and sale next month where our son hopes to perhaps purchase a bird or two. 

After that we left and our son picked Denny's for lunch then we drove home to get into hot baths and dry clothes. Still a good day despite the weather.

And a beautiful full double rainbow to guide us home.

 Blessed day, fun day.
