Country Living Fair

Country Living Fair Columbus Ohio Sept 25
This was the first time I had been able to visit the Country Living fair. It was fun  but also very confusing at keeping track of which booths you had seen and which ones you missed. Parking was a little far so you really had to think if you wanted to carry a large item or not. They did have a drop off point but I noticed a lot of men carrying large items and I was not going to push my luck by asking hubby to do the same. Some booths were so crowded there was no getting inside and the lines to pay were very long


It reminded us of colonial Williamsburg the little town was so quaint. wood walkways, restored old building.



When you purchased your ticket at the addmission tent you were given a pawprint and if you dropped it off here Country Living would donate $1.00 to a local animal shelter. Then Iams would match the donation with a bowl of food. Jim and I decided this was the dog for us all we had to do was water him down and he would stay green and happy


Longaberger was there and had a nice area set up and if you were lucky to be there on Friday you could have Tammy Longaberger sign her new  book Weaving Dreams

Jim was a good sport and had his picture taken in the Longaberger basket.


I was good and only purchased a few items we could carry easy and bought  subcriptions to Country Living magazine for only $ 5.00 for a year.

If you have a chance to go next year it is well worth the trip.
