A Trip to the Farm

We made a day trip out to the Welburn Gourd Farm today. It's about 100 miles each way. But today was their 50% off sale so we couldn't miss it. I got about $60 worth of gourds for $30. I got 2 snake gourds, and some gourds to make bongos and some smaller jewelry gourds. And four egg gourds. My main focus was to get the types of gourds that I didn't already have. When I got them home I made sure to put a label on each one so I wouldn't forget what I'd planned to make out of it.

The weather was gorgeous. The drive is through rolling hills and winding roads. We saw cows, squirrels, horses and a llama. It was good to get out of the city for the day.
