Traveling in style at the Fair... After many years of lugging heavy bags and raw lunches around all day at the Fair, I finally came up with a friendly, welcomed
solution. A new Hallelujah Acres cooler bag
housed our living lunch, topped with my
knap-sack full of healthy essentials I happily
wheeled around on a luggage carrier.
Convenient as well as comfortable,
my arms said, "Thank you!"

Here we are with Dr. Brian Clement after his lecture
We were happy to see him again
and appreciate his support/promotion of the
living food diet! I hope everyone who attended
takes his message to heart!
