Strawberry Festival
Today we went to the Strawberry Festival in Roanoke. We met up with the Wolf Cookies and picked up an injured Beavis, who we hiked with in ‘04, to bring him here to recoup a bit. Had a great time, at $6 strawberry shortcakes and had an...interesting...meal at TGI Fridays, a place I used to love which now serves MSG in everything, including their oreo chocolate cake. You can guess who is getting an angry letter from me!
Anyway, here are some photos:
And, a rarely-seen photo of mommy with Alexander! Yay!
The Strawberry Festival is a fundraiser every year for the Community School, they get about 20,000-30,000 people a year to the festival. The strawberries are huge but the crowds are, too!
They have live bands, and this guy loved the Wiggle-like band for the kids. He was seriously rocking out.
Wolf Cookie, Dances with Wolf Cookie, Denton, and Lorali (who was born July 31, 2007, just a month and a half after Alexander) came along to visit!
Beavis is dealing with some serious injuries right now that are keeping him off the Trail. Poor Beavis :( But the pain meds are nice, right???
