Title: Spring and summer festivals
Post by: shepherdchik on May 14, 2016, 09:57:03 am: Are there a lot of spring and summer festivals to enjoy where you live? I live near the beach so there are a lot of things to do once the season comes around. Nearly every weekend there is somewhere to go, food and beer feastivals, craft fairs, flea markets. So fun to get out and enjoy the weather!

Some of them are not much more than a town-wide garage sale with a parade, but most actually have events and shows going on during the festival. The place where my parents live has there town festival during the 4th of July, so they tend to really put on a big celebration turning it into a week-long party.

I guess you might be dead by Memorial Day weekend if you're currently sick now; it'd depend on what illness you're talking about. Although I wouldn't have taken "Deathfest" literally.... ;D ;)

Seriously, hope you guys feel better to enjoy it!
