Start your festival day off right by hitting the farmers Market in the 600 block of H Street. This is a producers only market that sells fruits, veggies, honey, jam, breads, meats, pies, cheeses, sauces, sorbet, scones, & more. The market is held every Saturday from 9-12 and runs through the end of October. Sidamo Coffee (417 H Street) is also sold at the market. Another good option for early tomorrow is Naby's Island Restaurant (corner of 12th & H). Tomorrow (beginning at 10am) is the grand opening. Naturally there will be door prizes, and customers spending $20 or more will be entered to win a cruise.
12-7pm on H Street between 12th & 14th. The festival will feature live music & dance, food, drink, and all manner of arts and crafts, as well as informational booths from local business.

If you stop at Sidamo before the market and festival, wish them a happy new year! Not only was Sep. 11 the Coptic new year, it was the milennium: new year's day of the year 2000.
hey, inked.
are you gonna be around?
if so, where will you be?
i'm sure lots of us would like to meet you in person...
I'll be around a bit, but this is not a good weekend for me. I'm up against some school deadlines & amoot curt deadline so I have somethinglike 800-950+ pages to read and digest & start writing on by Sunday, so I'll be a bit busy considering that I've also got to work Saturday morning and do a couple of interview things by noon on Monday.
The Festival was great, the biggest star being SOVA. Can't wait for them to open.
The garbage cans placed every few yards were a great idea. Maybe they were there last year and I didn't notice, but there was *much* less litter than there was last year. Thankfully. I had a good time and definitely agree about SOVA--looked great.
