Arts and Heritage Festival 2018 – Twin Lakes

This year I had a double dose of the Arts and Heritage Festival!  I wanted to see the Patsy Cline tribute show featuring Cathy Rhodes – I’ve seen her many times and really love the shows and the music.  So on Friday after work I drove over walked around the park, visiting the craft booths and grabbing an order of hand-cut French Fries just in time to sit and listen to the music.  It didn’t disappoint! 

While I was searching out my fries I came across the Speals Tavern mobile food truck – and of course had to send a photo in a txt to Ron, who frequents Speals when his favorite groups are performing there. And of course, Snoopy and the gang are always on hand…

Later that evening I was asking Ron what he wanted to do Saturday  – and he said go to the festival!  So we drove out again, having picked several shows that looked interesting.  We stopped and talked to a few authors on the Heritage Trail, scoped out the booths, and then got chicken and fries to share.  We ran into several people we knew, and stopped to chat with them for a while.  Nate, Jen and the girls (Autmn, Chrissy, and Penny) met us for funnel cake, and I took the girls to get their faces painted. 

We stayed until the festival closed at 8pm, having had a full evening of fun experiences.  I seldom buy anything but dinner, but really enjoy the atmosphere and adventure of the festival, and look forward to it every year.  Only 11 1/2 months until the next one!
