Smithville is a quaint historic town in New Jersey, located about a half hour drive from home.
Visiting Smithville is a treat any time of year but if you go on May Day,
they host a huge craft show with outdoor vendors in addition to their wonderful shops.
There were over 100 crafters and food vendors that feature all kinds of street food.

And I stumbled upon these adorable Goslings hanging out in the lake.
A handmade piece of pottery for a plant,
2 "be kind" stickers, one is for my mom and the pottery ornament that says "you'll live till you die".
There were so many beautiful things but not one thing I need.
I did "need" the ankle bracelets!
I love these spring festivals but it was 90 + degrees, too hot for me to stay long.
We split a chicken salad sandwich at
and headed home.
Why does it have to get so hot so quick.
We went from using the heat to the needing air conditioning in just a few days.

What a charming town. I don’t like the extreme heat either.
That looks like a delightful little town. I certainly love events like that too. I like wandering around and seeing what everyone is offering. That heat would be hard to handle. When I was younger I loved it but these days I can't handle it as well.
You made some lovely purchases. I have only visited Smithville around Christmas.
Yes Spring Festivals can be such fun ... but your temperatures are high!
The reflection in your first photograph is beautiful and those goslings are so cute.
All the best Jan
What a delightful place to visit. LOVE the goslings - a terrific photo of them.
I have a good friend who lives in Little Egg Harbor which I believe not too far from where you live.
