It never leaves the dock. LOL!<br /><br />Founder Queen? LMAO! Now that will look good on her resume.<br /><br />The only festival I'm aware of that is a little odd in this area is the RoadKill Festival in West Virginia. The "hillbillies" poke a lot of fun at themselves and serve some rather odd foods (like stewed crows).Intense Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08441598926026727682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241655384336418209.post-66946418916316648382011-10-03T19:30:41.130-07:002011-10-03T19:30:41.130-07:00Ah we have the Logging Days Festival, Midsummer Ce...Ah we have the Logging Days Festival, Midsummer Celebration, The Blueberry Festival (complete with Blueberry Shakes), South of us they have Turkey Days.<br /><br />I guess you were hobknobbing with the elite that are fashionably late! Looks like a great way to spend the day!<br /> I have been on a houseboat..my daughters were both excellent drivers..I was the kid watcher. We all went on a family vacation way up north in Minnesota, it was awesome the grandkids still talk about it! :)Far Side of Fiftyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995757632158408442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241655384336418209.post-58930962422954191622011-10-03T09:24:40.212-07:002011-10-03T09:24:40.212-07:00We have a "Sweet Onion Festival"..Whoope...We have a "Sweet Onion Festival"..Whoopee!

We've yet to go. There are apple festivals, heritage festivals, plain ol' fall festivals, German festivals, Octoberfests, Wine Festivals... You name it, I believe we've festivaled it.<br /><br />It is a shame you didn't get the pictures, but I would have been the same way - hesitant to snap photos if no one else was. The pictures you did get are pretty cool.<br /><br />Sounds like an awesome day!Deannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17137773126591638229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241655384336418209.post-28818124409885762992011-10-02T07:32:53.896-07:002011-10-02T07:32:53.896-07:00Oh my!

You can't find fried fish and hushpuppies in California. Everything here is broiled or raw or somehow "healthy"---not as tasty.maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12915948349223137648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241655384336418209.post-22530555067408011132011-10-01T23:42:52.801-07:002011-10-01T23:42:52.801-07:00Ah hell, I couldn't just leave my comment at t...Ah hell, I couldn't just leave my comment at that. That is one nice yacht. Sure am glad you beat the long lines...(if you say so) :-)<br /><br /><br />I always wanted to rent one of those houseboats, never did though. I think I'm glad I didn't. I always forget how much work was involved in those damn vacations.

I always like to do things like this; love to watch people and see what is happening.<br /><br />We have a Lemon Festival in August and in two weeks our city will be celebrating its 100th birthday, so lots of events tied into that :)<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241655384336418209.post-22893095320294705982011-10-01T19:47:47.689-07:002011-10-01T19:47:47.689-07:00I love all the Fall Festival that areas do.

Princess went with her friends but we haven't gone YET...BTW, I have a friend who was once crowned the "Watermelon Queen" in her locale. Great homespun stuff. Looks like fun - especially with a bit of wine to sip along the way.Sweet Teahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15614958513434632328noreply@blogger.com
