Bloggy Meetup 2011 - Part II

Saturday morning we got up early and headed to the Farmer's Market in Boone, NC.  First stop was the Alpacas.  Neither one was very interested in making friends.  The black one was making some crazy noises.

Since we were staying longer and had a long drive home, we decided fresh fruit and veggies weren't a good idea for us.  We did enjoy hot cups of coffee and C got a muffin.  We didn't stay long as we were heading back to the house to get ready to get ready to walk around Blowing Rock
 It turned out to be a great day!  The town was quaint and had lots of places to stop between shopping.  Some of us went and got Gelatos (my first one!) and a few got lunch.  There was a lot to look at (and buy), but C reined me in since the trunk of the car was SO SMALL! 

When we got back to the house we decided to work on the art project I brought.  Girlville and I thought painted plaques would be something simple we could work on and still get plenty of talking in!

These are the ones C and I made


 


We had dinner reservations for 6:30, so we crafted until around 5 and then freshened up to head out to dinner at Bistro Roca

Blowing Rock was so beautiful. We stopped by there on the way back from Grandma's a couple years ago. It looks like you had a great time there.

That was such a fun time seeing everyone! Can't wait until next time.

I agree with Pam...it was so nice visiting with everyone. I wish we had been there for crafting that afternoon...one of my favorite things to do was stay out there on that deck.
