Possibly one of the things I look forward to the most is the
local Fall Festival. Arts and crafts, street food, live
entertainment, face painting for my kiddo, and running into sweet friends throughout
the day. The Fall Festival is many
things to many people – for those in charge of the event it is a way to
showcase their community and all that it has to offer; for those attending the
event it is way to enjoy a day with friends and family without having to drive
too far away; and, for local shop owners, it is a welcome visit from old
friends and the opportunity to leverage new friendships.
Perhaps
the one word that could describe the local fall festival is that of community –
a group who shares common values. I just love that. So, as
Fall Festival season is officially upon us – Ennis and Midlothian’s festivals are
tomorrow – I invite you to come on down, scour the booths with loved ones, eat
until you can no longer take one more bite, and make a hometown memory that
will forever be etched in your mind. See you on the street!
