Time for Valleyfest!!

It's time for Valleyfest. This is always held in September. When the kids were in school, all of the activities were held at Terrace View Park following a parade down Mcdonald. Well, it has become a little bigger affair these days - probably because the Valley is now a City of it's own. Who knows! Now we have a parade that goes down Sprague (yea) from Pines to University. People sit on the sidewalks and even in the middle of the street because the parade only goes down one side of the street. Funny huh? On Saturday and Sunday all of the festivities are held at Mireabau Park - it's bigger and can hold more people I guess. This year they even had a hot air balloon takeoff. It's just a big get-together for the valley people and we all love it because it's kind of country like here anyway. Who cares what you wear and what you look like as long as you are having fun, right?
