Oktoberfest

The local Frontier Museum sponsors an Oktoberfest each year. There is a somewhat large German history in this area with the many Germans settling in this area, farther south into the NC mountains you get Irish and Scottish settlers. So the girls and I went. It was fun and festive.

Barrel Racing. Using a smaller barrel than the traditional one, but Lauren did great and won her race. Tiny but mighty, she is.

Making sauerkraut.

Helping to thrash and then sort the wheat.

Helping to make preserves

We had fun eating some food while watching the traditional dancing and music playing. Fun and lively.
