OLMA, Part 2

 More Exhibits



The locals are justifiably proud of their produce. 

Take a look at this bountiful variety.



Yup, black pumpkins. 

This very fine heifer went for 5400 Francs in the auction.

An exhibit by the furniture maker who made all of our wall paneling, bookcases, and such. 

And cars. Lots of people like automobiles. 

You could rappel down this wall, or go zip-lining over everyone’s heads.
The OLMA is famous for its beloved Bratwurst. And you need to know that it is a sin to eat it with mustard in eastern Switzerland. Some people sin in other parts. The lines were the longest at this stand. 

The brewery had their team out (I missed the photo) with their loaded wagon. We did go see the stabled horses after they were put away, still sweaty.


These horses had legs like tree trucks. One of the team was over twenty years old.

They were obviously well-cared for by knowledgeable horsemen. 

And that was it for this visit. Maybe we will go again before fifteen years has passed.
