The cute little town of Boalsburg, PA is {one of the apparently several small towns that claim to be} the "birthplace" of Memorial Day. To celebrate the day, the town has an extensive festival complete with carnival, streets of art, craft, and food vendors, an antique car show, and of course Civil War reenactments. Living in the town next door, we had to check it out despite muggy temperatures in the 90's (I am so glad I was not stuck in a poofy wool 1860s period dress!!). It was a fun way to recognize and celebrate the holiday and a nice kick-off to summer, for it is definitely summer now in these parts.
Aww that looks cute and fun, minus the 90+ degree temps! I've never even heard of Boalsburg but I love that first pic! So pretty!
