So, like I said before... there was music when we first walked in... well, once you got to the back and started looping your way around, we found a stage :)
I am usually not a huge fan of live music... I know I am probably the only one on the planet, lol... but let me tell you, this stuff was amazing... we even let the kids out of their strollers, because they wanted to dance.
The musicians had only ever met and practiced together 6 times... and this was their first time playing together as a band in public... their vibe with each other was incredible... it was like they had been playing together for years.
Of course, I have no idea who they are or anything... but dang were they impressive :)
After we listened to the music for a little bit, we decided to wonder through more of the tented area... and to try and wear out the boys, lol.
And there it was... a stage coach... Aaron and I were both blown away at the condition...
Look at that... a stage coach :)
And there was a lot of food... just people getting their dinner ready for when all the patrons leave... see, this was the re-enactors last night staying in the "compound"... so they were going all out...
Yes sir... those are huge slabs of ribs over a camp fire...
At the same camp site, just around the corner, they had a whole turkey... at least 22 lbs... over another fire :)
I couldn't for the life of me decide on what I wanted to eat... but we found some Elk Chili... I was pretty nervous, but it was delicious... of course I didn't get a picture... but I did get a picture of dessert, lol...
Its a Raspberry Cheesecake with Fudge Fry Pie... Along with some Sarsaparilla Root Beer...
I decided to wait until we got home to eat my pie... I was so happy that I did, it was so tasty... then of course I wished for another... but luckily I was already home and couldn't get another, lol.
The sign for the Fry Pies
The lady who ran the Pie stand had the cutest daughter... I am drawing a blank on her name (I'm thinking it was Cassie)... but talk about adorable... She was around 3 or 4 and came over to play with the boys... they all three ran around like crazy, chasing each other... and when it was time to go, the boys were so sad to say goodbye... She gave them both a kiss and tons of hugs...
They live in Wisconsin, so would be heading back home soon.
Part 3 of the Rendezvous will be for all you fiber-y people... I don't know if you know, but Carol Leigh always has a booth out there... and of course I stopped, talked and got some of her lovelies :) See you later...
