- Looking for some rackus and rauchy fun? Head to the Sterling Renaissance Festival where lords and ladies have as much fun as the jesters. Knaw on a roasted turkey leg while knights joust. Join the merriment of a pub sing-a-long. There are 15 stages in action and plenty of interactive fun along the way, as well as artisans demonstrating their craftsmanship (and of course selling their wares).
- The elephants are back at the Rosamond Gifford Zoo in their newly expanded exhibit. We are fortunate to have such a zoo in our backyard. My personal favorites are the penguins, monkeys, oh and the bears, and the lions - I guess I enjoy it all. This is a place you can commune with the many species on this earthly world of ours.
- And to round out the weekend, some great blues at the NYS Blues Festival (back after a 1 year hiatus). The festival has moved to the Syracuse Inner Harbor (I'll walk there from my downtown flat) and besides the great music, there will be family fun - so bring the kids on down. The festival is free, but if you want prime viewing and complimentary food and beverages invest in the Blues Club Ticket ($75) Corn-Bred and Los Blancos are playing on Sunday.
Put your sunscreen on and head out for some weekend fun!
