Maple Fest 2017, was most enjoyable! The Maple Syrup people turned out in force, showing up at 6:30 am when it was quite cool, and went at the task of setting up with determination.
Myself, I helped set up the Huntsville Lions and Lioness (my missus was the President lady) booth with their trademark Bacon-on-a-bun with – for the occasion, – Maple Mustard!
It was all good! The entertainers were fun and talented, the Beer tent at an after lunchtime hour was enjoyable with local brewmeisters and it all added up to a really fun day!
I enjoyed seeing the usual parades of people with their dogs of many different breeds when the pavement was not quite as hot as it is later on in the summer.
Kudos to the organizers, and the participant vendors and the people who turned out.
