Just putting feelers out there.
During Christmas I posted a picture of our " Unicorn " Nick.
And since then I've been tossing around the idea of how to introduce him to the public in the most spectacular way.
So my thought is to have a
" Royal Ball " for all the Unicorn loving little Prince and Princesses of the land.
To be able to put their fancy dresses or suits on and come be a Prince or Princess for the day.

If this sounds like something that you think your children would enjoy then please comment on this post.

Horses and some wagons have made it over to Blennerhassett Island, and in a few days the rest of our equipment will.
It's almost time to open back up for the season.
If you haven't been to the Island or have family coming in that hasn't then plan yourself a day to come and enjoy the history.
Hope to see you all this season
