The past week has been a great one for festivals. The frenzy started in Granbury with the Old Fashioned Fourth of July festivities. The parade through downtown was magnificent and it was well attended by citizens lining the sidewalks three-deep in most places.

Denizens of Granbury and the surrounding area really took to the Snowflakes and Spider Lilies, as many people recognized them but had no idea what they were or how to obtain them.
On Tuesday the fourth Chris and I closed up shop at 6:00 and headed to the lake for fireworks. We were joined by my family, cousins, aunt and uncle, and my friend Courtney. We passed the time until the light show after dusk by eating chicken and listening to music. Chris and I challenged my sister Emily and Courtney to bocce ball and were promptly destroyed 15-4.


On Saturday I was able to attend my hometown Parker County Peach Festival in Weatherford. Both the Granbury and Weatherford shows took place in the shadows of what I think are two of the most beautiful courthouses in the state. It was good to see old friends and show them my new love of flower bulbs.
