Good morning!

I had a lot of fun attending the Virginia Fantasy Festival last weekend. It was rainy, cold, muddy, and a lot of fun! 🧌 🗡

Luckily, this weekend is all warm and sunshine. So this weekend is going to be much more comfortable.

If you enjoy fantasy, food, and interesting vendors, it is certainly worth your time.

SPECIAL EVENTS

Virginia Fantasy Festival

This upcoming Saturday and Sunday (30th & 31st) are the last two days of the Virginia Fantasy Festival!

The festival features over 50 artisans and vendors, immersive experiences, , shows, live music, hands-on workshops, and great food (I recommend the natchos).

The festivities go from 10:00 am - 5:00 pm.

P.S. There is a known issue with Apple Maps getting the directions to the festival wrong. Google Maps and Waze both provide correct directions.
