I know! This is not a balloon. But I thought it was really cool so I had to share it.
On the weekend we went to an artisan's festival at Fairy Lake in Newmarket. One of the thing that we saw was this cool moose ottoman. It was made in Waterloo. They also had elephants, bears, hippos and bull dogs. They come in various patterns or solid colors. I fell in love with this fellow so had to give it a good home. We call him "Mumford".
Thenin the afternoon we went to "Polo for Heart". It is a polo tournament to raise money for the "Heart & Stroke Foundation". My credit union, Pace Credit Union, was a major sponsor so I got free tickets. I thought that they would be just general admission. But when we arrived, we found out that they were for the VIP tent. The tickets include lunch and open bar. We had a great time rubbing shoulders with the mucky mucks.
Mercedes-Benz was another sponsor so we went car shopping.
This car has gull wing doors and is a mere $214,000.00.
We even saw a couple of polo matches. All in all, a wonderful way to spend a Saturday afternoon.
