@asmonet: I missed our Cherry Blossom Festival this year, but I went with my daughter to the Tulip festival for the first time. It was beautiful. There’s a summer Lavender Festival out on the peninsula that I’ve heard good things about, but I’ve never been. I’m going to try to make that this year, too.
@chris6137: Nice! Our summer is sandwiched between Northwest Folklife Festival on Memorial Day Weekend and Bumbershoot on Labor Day Weekend. These are “must sees” for us every year. I regret that I never went to Coachella when I lived a lot closer to it. I love music festivals of all kinds. A couple weekends back I had fun at the World Rhythm Festival which I’ll go to again. :^>
@casheroo: My kids are grown, but seeing that sort of thing makes me want grandkids sooner. :^>
@Judi: Do you wander around and look at art, watch the pageant, or do more of the participating?
@charliecompany34: That sounds nice. Do you get some time off to look around or do you just not want to anymore? Seattle has a food and wine event in the middle of the summer that I’ve managed to miss it so far each summer we’ve been here. I’ve always heard great things about it, and want to go this year.
Other things I’ve been looking forward to are Seafair including the Pirates Landing in West Seattle and Friday night free movies at the Mural. Summer is just packed here in a way that it wasn’t in my old town. I’m feeling it coming on. :^>
