The 2 Street Fest and the lesser Church Hill Italian Fest

As often occurs, Kel managed to talk me into going to festivals on Saturday the 5th (I'm a bit behind in the blog at the moment...sorry folks). Having lived in Richmond all my life, I have never attended either of these festivals because both occur in parts of town I am unfamiliar and sometimes uncomfortable with. Despite my misgivings, we had tons of fun but I would have to say the 2nd Street Festival is much more fun that the Italian Fest which turned out to be a white people, Italian Food, eat-a-thon.

Here are the pics...enjoy!

The State Fair of Virginia

Special thanks to Kevin and Julia Correll who braved the VA State fair with us last weekend. It was as fun as a fair can be...much people watching, a little eating of horrible foods, and a few shows lead to a great afternoon.
