Hi Mary, this is such a fun event between Thanksgiving and Christmas!  Looks like it is a great time for you to stock up on the hand made soap, and that Elk Chili sounds like it would really hit the spot after cutting your own tree!

Hope you had a great Thanksgiving with your family, Mary!

Hi, Mary...it sounds like Red Feather Lakes has some great events planned for Christmas. Cutting a tree can be fun for the whole family. I've done that.

Hi Bruce, we had a great Thanksgiving, thank you- I hope you did too!  I'm already planning on stocking up and doing a little holiday shopping, too!

Hi Sharon, yes- the Fellowship Hall will be filled with vendors as well as the basement level too!

Hi Debbie, It IS fun to cut your own tree- almost every car or truck going down the mountain for the next few weeks will have a tree on top :-)

Tammy, yummy ! hot fresh bread sounds delicious. The Mountain Gals always have a great selection in the Bake Sales.. this morning, I was thinking "cookies!"
