Time for Second Chances ... and Third, and Fourth ...

No one looks forward to the annual Duck Festival, and the Fireworks display weekends more than my husband ... both events always held each May and June, Rain or Shine.  Except this year, when record rains and forecasts have postponed things not once or twice but three and four times! Yes, it has been a wet season so far, and yesterday's sun was a much appreciated event! But the thing to remember is that forecasts for the mountains are seldom accurate and can change in a matter of minutes, having absolutely no resemblance to the daily predictions! Yesterday's in fact was for 'more of the same' ... rain and thunderstorms, and yet we had not a drop of it, and the sky was totally blue and sunny all day long, despite the fact that the forecast never budged from its original prediction. And how wrong it was!! We are hoping for more sun  this weekend when both the Duck Festival AND the Fireworks display converge on Saturday (festival) and  Saturday evening (fireworks) ... a fabulous double event that should make the Independence Day celebrations absolutely fantastic! So if you missed out on the first go-rounds of these events, this year you get a second chance (or more!). We are almost at full occupancy but there are a few openings here and there in the schedule, so consider getting the bonus of these two great events when you visit our beautiful little village.  It just doesn't get much better than this!!
