What a May Day.

On Sat, I went back to the town where grew up for the May Day celebration I attended on Sat and have been attending since I was a kid. There was a parade & festival full of historical reenacters, vendors, auctions, crafts for kids, rides and more. I went with my daughter and we had just had the best time. A lot of the parade and festival were totally hokey, but we didn’t care. We both had fun and made fun of plenty of stuff, but that was okay with us. 😉 Sometimes, you  just can’t take yourself or anything too seriously.

So, on to the pictures.
