30 in 30 Challenge. Day 27. Bring it Outside

It’s been a long day at Alligator Fest. It runs from 11 to 11 Saturday and Sunday, and I did 6-11 Friday night. Is it wrong that I’m a little relieved it looks like constant rain tomorrow, and I might forego it altogether? What I like most about this festival is the other artists, one […]
