October Catch Up Post #2 - The Tractor Show

While Janice and Devin were on their honeymoon, Kyleigh went with us to the Fall Festival at the Antique Gas and Steam Engine Museum in Vista (better known as the Tractor Show).  We go down to both the Fall and Spring Festivals every year to operate the rope braiding machines and sell the jump ropes made on the machine.  Here is Kyleigh with one of the machines.
Of course, demonstrating rope braiding can be boring, so Kyleigh finds other things to do.  Here she is jump roping with a very large rope.
 
 The rope braiding machines are located in the Weavers' Barn and sometimes she visits the other exhibitors, mostly weavers and tatters.  Here she's learning to tat.
 And here's a closeup.
 There are other things to do as well: a schoolhouse, a farmhouse, a model train display where you can do a scavenger hunt and a playground.  There's also a parade and one of the highlights of the show for Kyleigh is riding in the parade.  This is her Saturday ride
 
 And here's her Sunday ride.
