No honeybees?

Last Saturday (Oct. 8th) Chris and I started the morning with a 32 mile bike ride in the Hahira Honeybee Festival bike ride.  We had a choice between 32, 62 and 100 miles - since we have only been on our bicycles once this year, we thought that 32 miles would suit us best.  It was great to be back in the saddle, so to speak, and we made good time.  *Very happy*



After the ride and much needed showers, we went into town for the festival itself.  Now being called the "honeybee festival," I assumed that there would be something to do with bees - I was wrong.  Arts & crafts, food, cars, a parade and people are what the festival is all about.  It was a ton of fun (for me anyways) since I love crafts.  If you know Hahira, however, then you know it is a small town with not too, too many people.  However, the honeybee festival changes things drastically!


Needless to say, Sunday we were very lazy after our Saturday full of festivities.  USM won, the Saints won... altogether a good weekend.
