Then the head Woodsman gave us the rules, the trumpet sounded, and we were off!
Sputnik and I search the woods for the elusive Yule Log.
Finn says, "Is this it? Is this the Yule Log?"
"I think I ate it!"
"Halueb!!!" The Yule Log was found and we were nowhere near it. But we joined the jolly crowd to help pull it back to the lodge. Finn and Sputnik had the honor of pulling at the front of the line this year!
The boys didn't just pull--they pulled HARD! There were a few times when I thought Sputnik was going to pull me over and drag me as well as the Yule Log. It wasn't until we started uphill that he settled down for a steady pull.
It's blurry, but there's the Yule Log with the lucky finder and his friends riding on it.
This little boy was the proud finder of the Yule Log.
He helped cut a piece off the end to take home as a souvenir of his big day.
Afterwards we had wassail and cookies. We shared quite a few cookies with the goats. Finn's favorite part of the Yule Log Festival is getting fawned over by hundreds of strangers who come every year for the express purpose of adoring him. Sputnik's favorite part is COOKIES. "Gimme cookies!! Gimme cookies NOW!! Nom! Nom! Nom!"
