Esp. the part about the concrete.<BR/>Well you know my favorite festival already so let me just whisper MAy Day Fairie FEstival! <BR/>My second fave is my hometown festival, that homage to APPLE BUTTER. The Apple Butter FEstival is held every year over Columbus Day weekend here in Berkeley Springs, WV. To salute our favorite condiment, we stir huge vats of the stuff on the square, as well as squeal like pigs (the Hog-calling contest), grow our beards (the beard contest), and race our turtles. Of course there is a parade, and many vendors.<BR/><BR/>We used to live in Takoma Park, MD which has a wonderful Folk Festival every Fall, but we also loved the Street Festival. I'm not sure they still have it. And while we're talking urban festivals, the Adams Morgan FEstival is an amazing melange of cultures and frenzied activity.<BR/><BR/>So there are some of my favorites! I'm really sorry you won't be there on Sunday, but let's definitely make some hangout time Fri/Saturday.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10638554994837861939noreply@blogger.com
