Life is Just a Bowl of Cherries




At least at the National Cherry Festival. We likened it to the Strawberry Festival in Plant City (FL), in that there were more ways to use cherries than you could imagine! Of course there's no pit spitting contest at the Strawberry Festival. (Can you believe there are people who can propel a cherry pit to over 50 feet?!) The week-long Cherry Festival is held along the beautiful shores of the bay in Traverse City, MI. Some of the festivities we enjoyed during our afternoon and evening there included the kids chalk art, the Air Dog competition, the wine sampling tent complete with a host sommelier (pictured in the green shirt by the barrel), and of course the live music venues.
