Every year, Carytown in Richmond puts on a Watermelon Festival and every year, it is brutally hot. This year was no exception. We headed out early so we could beat the worst of teh heat, but it was still in the mid-90's before noon. We enjoyed ice cold watermelon and snow cones, bottled water and the free spray misters we walked under.
We also went into lots of interesting shops in Carytown, heard different live entertainment, entered free drawings and played games. Ellie got her face painted with, what else, a watermelon !
One of the best parts of a festival is, of course, the food. Bethany got some Lo Mein, Sam got cheese fries and Steve and I ate a Jersey Grinder with homemade chips. Yummmmy!
