Plagman's Barn

A couple of weekends ago we decided to check out Plagman Barn days.  We have made ads for them for 7 years or so but have never gone to the event,  I'm glad we did.  It is a festival much like Osborne, but with even more hands on exhibits and activities, and even better features like the school house and blacksmith shop.  

I really enjoyed the barn dance.  The music was great and I loved seeing, what I assume to be, widows dancing together to still enjoy their favorite past time without their husbands.  The event was originally created to save this old dance hall barn, so to experience a dance in the barn made the event so worthwhile.


Link enjoyed lots of hands on activities, which were all labeled "not responsible for accidents".

Here he is at the corn sheller.

Writing his and Felix's name on the board.

Making rope.


Felix was on my back all day so didn't get in any shots.  Here he is when we returned home, enjoying the empty bottle of sarsaparilla.
