41st annual Oregon Country Fair

We went to the OCF this past weekend near Veneta, outside of Eugene.
It's a magical tour through an enchanted forest filled with awesomely inspiring people.

Here is my wife, Janessa, and our son, Odin, and me. The sun hat was big enough that it shaded Odin when I was carrying him. It's from an estate sale in Portland -- the deceased had a lot of hats, and this one is great for gardening.

Eric, on the other hand, still wears his hats. He is still living. I saw him playing songs in an area for performance with a lot of benches called the Still Living Room. It's reserved for Fair elders who've been coming and playing for a while, like Eric Nicholson who's been doing so for 20 years. His songs are timeless, and of the spirited Earth.
