LilyFest 2009 is a three day event in the hocking hills area of Ohio.(Donations accepted) There are 3 ACRES of artistically designed gardens, ponds and garden sculptures and 70+ AREA ARTISTS displaying, demonstrating and marketing their products.
Now for a few pictures:
One of the area artists is Mr. Ed Kitchen of Lancaster,Ohio.
Ed is the tall fellow in the black shirt and let me tell you he has been working pretty hard. Take a second and check out his blog Ed Kitchen Paintings
How about a little music:
Let’s check out a couple vendors:
Maybe I’ll help Linda with some cleaning. A new broom might help. (LOL)
Things started to get Prickly as we went by the cactus display:
So we stopped by Annie’s Cheese Cake (vendor at the Fest) for a sandwich & soda and sat under the tree house.
As you probably know by now I am always thinking about golf. So imagine my surprise when I found the wooden putter.
(Can’t see my stomach in that picture)
While I was checking out the putter guess what Linda found? (BEARS)
Well there was one whole section I didn’t mention on purpose.
So you will just have to find out by getting out there yourself.(Or maybe in another post)
Oh, this would have been fun! I love lilies, crafts, folk music! Thanks for the experience.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like so much fun! I love going to festivals and seeing all the handmade items for sale. I like the setting of the Lilyfest, out among the trees. Thank you for sharing the pictures and your trip, I enjoyed them!
ReplyDeleteA lilyfest! Oh I would've loved it. There's a botanical garden I used to go to annually to see all the lilies. Foolproof and they multiply all on their own! My kind of plants!
ReplyDeleteI would've had a hard time getting by the pottery, too, although I bet they were pricey. I'm always on the hunt for BIG pots for outdoors.... tough to find!
Y'know...I can imagine myself living in that treehouse! So long as there was enough room for books!
That looks like a festival I could get lost in. It all looks great.
ReplyDeleteThat was fun! Thanks for taking us along.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great place to go! I bet you had a blast!!!! Loved the cactus displays(-:
ReplyDeleteBrilliant - only wish I could go there lol
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun day! Somebody likes bears. You'd like my house then.
ReplyDeleteWow, this looks great! I wish I could have been there! It would be lovely to have something like this in our town.
ReplyDeleteThanks for participating in Small Town Snapshot Sunday!
I love this type of entertainment, especially dulcimers. We have a local lady that is amazing with her hammer dulcimer...

That looks like a really fun day! Wooden putters, turkey legs, and a wife who likes bears. What more could a guy ask for!
