Folk Fest.



It's that time of year! AH I love Folk Fest. A weekend packed with dancing, camping, friends and of course, folk music. It is easily said to be the best weekend of the year. Put on your hippie pants for this wild ride. This carefree weekend starts at 11:00am on the Friday of the last weekend in July. The best. Last year was my first year going. I didn't think it could get any better than that. First off, we just finished off a huge heat wave and it was starting to get stormy. I thought great a night in the pouring rain, freezing cold and stupid music. But to my surprise a thunder storm after a heat wave is the best thing ever. I was surrounded my people I love and I gained a new love for folk music. Definitely NOT stupid. Dancing in the summer rain with lightning and thunder and amazing people was honestly the best feeling I've ever felt. Now that was last year. I didn't think it could be topped. But it was. This year was just the best. That's it. So fun. I cannot begin to describe to you the feeling of just being so carefree and happy. If you've felt it before you know what I mean. Just complete happiness. Dancing, laughing and listening. I got to spend an even longer time this year at folk fest. Not only did I get to share amazing dance moves with my friends, but I got to share the day with them lying in the grass, staring up at the sky completely without worry. That was truly what AMAZING is. I cannot wait for next year to come around and I can experience an even greater impact.
