Is anyone going to the 9th Annual Whippoorwill Festival in eastern Kentucky?

The dates are July 19-21, 2019

I may be going.  I've never been, but daughter and her crew are going.

I'd like to attend a session or two hosted by Doug Crouch on forest enhancement.  There is also a Solar workshop by Matt Ellison that interests me.

Of course, that is in prime blackberry season.

My grandmother and I want to attend, and we are close-ish. But it sure is expensive.

It is pricey.  In other days, I would have passed it up.

The schedule has just been posted:

I'm aiming for Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning workshops.  I really do need to learn more about Solar power, but more importantly, make local contacts.

Ryan, Mooseage me if you do go, and we'll try to meet, eh?

Because of all the other stuff that I try to get done while I'm in KY, I passed on going this year.  Will possibly try again next year.  SIL knows one of the organizers and helped with set-up, so he and daughter got a free pass.  Rose says it was much too hot, but the swimming was fine!  She has a 1 year old, so didn't even try to attend any of the workshops this year.
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://stoves2.com
