Fountain Hills Festival

After a day of showers - and having to add water to the fresh tank in the middle of mine - we got organized and went into Fountain Hills to see a portion of their November Festival. Since it was Saturday afternoon, the Post Office was closed, so we were able to park in their parking lot. This is the end of town where the Recycled Spoon ended up having their booth this year.

It's a huge art festival - I heard there were more than 500 artists represented. There were booths on both sides of the streets with some down the middles as well. The Recycled Spoon was about five sites into their row. Forry stayed and visited at the booth while I took a look at a few of the booths. There are some impressive works of art - some with several thousand dollar price tags!

The Festival shuts down at 5, so we went from there to dinner. We decided to try a new place that we found on YELP, called Desert Dave's Ol' Digs. It was NOT what we expected. I expected more of a saloon type atmosphere with that name. Instead it was a rather elegant nice place with a pianist playing dinner music. The food was pretty good. Colleen and I had rib steaks while the fellows enjoyed huge bison burgers.

We got home in time to watch Oregon win their football game against Stanford; now we watch the WSU vs UCLA game and hope that Washington wins their game as well!
