The Glengarry Pioneer Museum in Dunvegan hosted its annual Harvest Fall Festival on Sunday. It's a pile of fun! There are antique threshing machines...
Folks demonstrating spinning and weaving...
...and old fashioned games for kids like the classic sack race.
At the petting zoo, a turtle goes horseback riding...
...and a good dog gets a hug.
There's a terrific horse parade through the streets of Dunvegan.
The horses and buggies come in all shapes and sizes.
A few anxious pioneer gals wait to see if their names are called in the best dressed pioneer woman contest.
Judging that was a tough call...
Here's Bill announcing the winner of the best dressed male pioneer. Our own Hugh P. won the honours.
At the end of the day, even a goat needs something to eat at the snack bar.
Nice pics

Looks like a grand ol' time was had by all.
ReplyDeleteWhy, it's all so warm n' fuzzy where you live - just like a Trisha Romance painting.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great bunch of volunteer out in your neck of the woods to put together such a fun day! Thanks for sharing the pics. I wasn't able to get out - maybe next year.
