Shocktoberfest

Last weekend, we went into downtown Richmond to attend "Shocktoberfest". It took place at the 17th Street Farmer's Market.

The Market is on every weekend, but sometimes they pair it with another festival. In this case, the German Festival of Octoberfest melded with the market. It was a beautiful day. There was a fantastic turnout of people and some great German dancing. One of the highlights...we were interviewed for the 6 o'clock and 11 o'clock news! The cameraman/interviewer was very excited to hear that we were just moving to the Richmond area and asked us a bunch of questions about why we came down to the market that day and what we liked best. Since 6pm is a busy time for us around our house, we missed the 6 o'clock news. Clint stayed up until 11pm and woke me up to watch the news. Sure enough....we were on the news! TV stars in our new city within the first two weeks of being here. HA!
