The Victorian Festival


Hey, it only took me 4 years, but I finally made it down to Northville's Victorian Festival. The purpose of celebrating Victoriana is somewhat lost on me, but if the town feels like putting on a show, I'm all for it.

My Mom came over, and She, Ava and I set out on foot for the festival. I didn't know really what to expect - stiff-backed self righteousness? Anti-macassars? Fussy decorating? In any case, it was part art-fair, part local fund-raiser and part carnival, so it was pretty fun. Ava had a great time riding the kiddy-sized ferris wheel and getting her face painted. (Thanks Grandma Joan!)
