OH BARF ......
It was loud, crowded, and chaotic. You couldn't walk in a straight line, even when perusing all the vendor's wares. I checked it out, stayed about an hour and then was glad to get out.

I got there in the morning, and had a great time dancing and browsing, had lunch. Left, returned, knew there was no way I'd find a parking space anywhere nearby so I parked over by the furniture shop past Publix and walked from there. Spent another couple hours mostly dancing, bought a couple of things, and came home.

I love these occasional festivities. Not something I'd do regularly but they're a great break from the usual.

Hmmmmm.

Maybe the author of this article attended a different 30th anniversary celebration at Spanish Springs than my wife and I did. The one I attended did not bear much resemblance to the hyperbole of Mr. Headley

Of course, a 30th anniversary event will be crowded. Still, we enjoyed it.
