From there, I hit up "the barnyard", where a number of farm animals were displayed individually or in pairs. I saw sheep, goats, pigs, chickens and a trio of alpacas. I walked around a little by the area with festival food booths and a fairly decent band playing 80s/90s hits and then walked further only to discover an entire part of the park I'd never been in. I'd only ever been to Lake Farmpark three times--once for a similar event to today's, once for a huge craft show and once for Vintage Ohio, a monstrous outdoor wine festival that draws wine aficionados from all around the country (and also attracts some decent bands, which I can hear from my house on a clear night). At the back of the property was a greenhouse with classrooms, an apiary, another playground for the kiddos and some really nice pavilions for picnicking . From there, I came back to the front of the park and "met" the newest addition: a month old calf named Peony. And then I was pretty much over it...
ETA--I think I overdid it a bit today though. I literally walked several miles through the park, during the peak heat of the day, and now I have a pounding headache, possibly from getting too much sun. Luckily, the sunscreen did its job though...I'm wearing a tank top with some interesting cutouts that would've made for a really funky burn "pattern" had the sunscreen failed <g>.
