Hoopiefest Has A Special Theme This Year! |
It took an event like Hoopiefest to bring Wild Rose Farm back to the blogosphere! We've been very busy & things are finally starting to settle down a little at work. Enough so, that we made it to the Beaver Farmers' Market Saturday morning. Strangely enough, a few days ago, the thought of
"hey, isn't it about time for Hoopiefest?" came to mind. As I was wandering around the market
(see other blog here), one of the vendors mentioned being invited to Hoopiefest. "WHAT?", I said!
"Oh, some old neighbors of mine have a party the 3rd weekend in August each year ..... my sister usually goes, & this year I got invited .... I volunteered to bring the corn, but they already had it lined up." "It's out in the middle of nowhere."
I couldn't believe it! I mentioned the saga of trying to track this down for 2 years, but no directions were forthcoming ...... hmmmmm. So ..... I returned to where we've seen the sign before and was not disappointed. Again we turned down the back road.

One Lane Bridge On The Search For Hoopiefest |
We drove on along the road looking for any indication the Hoopiefest was near ........ up ahead were a bunch of balloons on either side of a hidden driveway. But no, this wasn't Hoopiefest. :(

A Baby Shower! |
Just when it seemed like we'd gone too far & had surely passed it up - here it was! Looks like it really is an honest to goodness Hoopiefest! The picture has been cropped to protect the innocent.
