The Maggie Valley Festival Grounds were busy all day as set up was underway for WinterFest Smoky Style. Of course, for us, that meant we are settled into our S-RV and are getting ready for the big day.
Resting up in the S-RV.
Timbers were delivered for the National Champion Haywood Community College Timbersports Team Demonstrations.
Work crews were busy laying out the sled dog course.
Dan Rehak and his team tested the Sled Dog course.
Media interviews were being conducted.
Though we all know who the media really wanted to meet – the working dogs.
Our Opening Night Dinner featured Sgt. Brandon Gilmore explaining the training and work of law enforcement K-9’s.
Saturday is the big day and we hope to meet many readers from this area. Festival gate fee is only $2 for adults and $1 for children and all of those gate fees benefit the Friends of the Haywood County Animal Shelter.
Come on out if you are within driving distance!

Lap Dog
When you are 60 lbs (27kg) of Siberian Husky, there are people who say you should no longer be a lap dog. Kodiak heartily disagrees.
Visit Millerton, a fictional small town near Asheville NC, via D.K. Wall's novels. Ordinary people. Extraordinary events.
Ice sez: Me ‘n Mom would sure love to be there for the weekend. Kinda far drive from here, though.
Am starting to fall for where you live. Awesome!
