The Washington Parish Free Fair is on its way! I love having time off but also love to be with family and friends that we may only see once a year or so. I can’t wait to see how our students do with their writings, art, crafts, and stage performance.
It is always so much fun to spend time in Mile Branch and sit on the Jones Cabin porch watching the people go by.
We are ready to get our hands on some of the cracklins, cheese and crackers, sassafras tea (I prefer it warm/hot), caramel apples, and sweet tea!
I do miss the days of preparing for the livestock show with my sheep, but those days are long gone. If you see me at the Fair, I would love to visit with you!
If you would like to help Mrs. Alice and Mrs. Christy with the parade float for the Washington Parish Free Fair, please contact them. They would love to have your assistance in decorating the float and preparing the throws.
There will be a Prayer Walk at the Fairgrounds October 9th at 6 pm, meet at the Stage.

I hope you all have a fantastic week. I pray that if possible, maybe there will be some rain this week to settle the dust and dirt for the Fair next week and it will cool down. Until next time……
