Photos from yesterday's family event / Fall Festival at Forsyth Park (Thank you to everyone that made this great family event happen!) are pending...

The event was well intended - the corn maze was super-cool (smile) - and if you missed this year's event, I would highly recommend putting it on the calender (especially for families with young children) for next year! Some things (food, drinks, games) cost money... Some things were free... All of the offerings were pretty "nifty", creative and light-hearted...

[Note: The Italian Fest was so crowded (Must have been good!) that we couldn't find a place to park!]

The Halloween shop in the Town of Ulster (This is not a paid add!) is also awesome - as it is very much like a spook house (possibly too scary for some children) in and of itself... and it is also [unless you choose to shop...) free.
