Autumn in the Ozarks--a scenic setting by a rustic mill--yep, must be War Eagle!
Attending the War Eagle Fall Fair is a long tradition for my family, with my father's home located nearby and many friends exhibiting their work at the show.
I remember when there were at least six tents "over the bridge" on the hilltop overlooking the mill; this year, they were down to four. I had heard the overall quality was down, but I can't agree. It may have been smaller, but what I saw looked good.
I made a point of shopping with my "regulars," or at least stopping by to see what's new.
I plan to profile several War Eagle artists in future posts: Marianne Hanson, who makes wonderful porcelain jewelry; Joe Henderson, of Willow Brook Leather; Jeff and Judy Goodwyn, of Daaman Jewelry; and the "personality-plus" birds of Rick Lorenz.

| Here's the old War Eagle Mill (where they still grind grain) and the bridge over the creek. Artist tents are on the other side. |
