Lyndhurst Turkey Fair

My husband and I had the pleasure yesterday of attending the annual Turkey Fair at Lyndhurst, Ontario, about an hour's drive from our home. The fair is always a large draw for crowds, and this year there were over 1,700 in attendance.

These small-town fairs are a wonderful opportunity for people to wander the main streets, visit the exhibitor booths, listen to music, and share conversations. With the heavy rainfall this summer, there were at least two events we didn't attend so it was wonderful to see the sunshine yesterday.

Lyndhurst had a special event this year to celebrate Canada's 150th anniversary. Beautiful paintings now adorn canoe paddles to mark the event. You can view them at https://turkeyfair.com/2017/09/08/vie....

Thanks to the many organizers and volunteers for all their hard work!
