Apple Festival

This weekend is the 66th Annual Apple Festival; over half the apples in NC
are grown in this area.  So my partner and I went to Apple Festival for a
couple of hours this morning.  Pictures below.  This is only a tiny slice of
of the town--1.5 blocks.  Walking is difficult for me, but I thoroughly
enjoyed myself.

                                         There are all kinds of bears all over the town-beautifully
                                         painted.

                                         The downtown roads, sidewalks, and huge planters
                                         were just re-done; very nice now--pain while it was
                                         in the process of completion.

                                          People gathered outside of a restaurant and another
                                          huge planter with convenient bench nearby.

                                         Ginny's Fudge Shop (both pics)  I purchased only one
                                         square of the cappuccino--YUM!

                                          Excellent cinnamon and vanilla nuts

                                          What to do with horseshoes. . .

                                          Inside of horseshoe booth

                                          Still another booth

                                          Baked goods

                                          Booth for donations for promoting the end to
                                          breast cancer.  Two young girls were running the
                                          booth.

                                          One of the girls running the breast cancer awareness
                                          booth.

                                          These kids could flat dance--looked like they had
                                          sneaked a peek at the movie, Magic Mike--they had
                                          some moves!

                                         OK, This is blurry--Man imitating art--look how the man
                                         has his arms positioned--then look at  the bear
                                         

                                          Another bear . . .

                                          This is a biplane--you'll have to take my word on this--
                                           When he was closer, I was trying to get to my camera.
                                           All the pics for today.
