the local Hiddenite Festival

Today was a beautiful day for our local Hiddenite craft festival.  It started out with the whole family, but we left the boys home after lunch, and it was just Hannah and I.  We had a good time.  Here are a few pictures.

 And after a tour of the Lucas mansion complete with period furniture, we relaxed while listening to this great musician.  That's a type of dulcimer he's playing, such a pretty sound.

What a perfect day!
