First Friday/ music friday
Tonight is music Friday downtown Lancaster. Many of the shops and art galleries are open until 9. Also through out downtown several musical performances.My question for you lovely ladies, do you take advantage of the events in your community? Do you have a special tradition, for example fireworks at longs park on 4th of July?

Re: First Friday/ music friday
Music Friday sounds nice! When I lived in FL, they had Fridays on 5th (the name of the street downtown). All the local shops downtown were open late, they had food, wine, music, etc. We've gone to the Apple Festival in New Cumberland ever since I moved here--I always have a good time. When we were over in Mechanicsburg we went to Jubilee Day, but since DH's best friend moved, it's not so easy to go to. We can actually see the fireworks over the tree tops from Harrisburg here in Camp Hill...so need to go anywhere for the 4th, lol! The only other thing we've done both years since I moved here is go and see the snow blowers on Roundtop. My stepson thinks they are just too cool.
I have been to a few First Fridays and I really enjoyed them. I've never been to a music one. If it were to warm up a bit I'd think about going tonight but I'm inside right now and freezing!!! I loved when the had the pianos throughout the town that the community could play!
Normally we end up going to Longs Park on the 4th. Also, my family has a cottage along the river and all the cottages purchase fireworks and then set them up on barges and take them into the middle of the river and we have our own private fireworks show which is awesome!
I agree, the older I get the more I try to do things that I would never have thought would have interested me, ie museums, art shows, wineries ( I would love to make my own wine.. it just seems fun)
Thanks for trying to make the board active! This was fun.
I was wondering about the Cashtown Inn. I love the view from Hauser Estate. It's not far from the Adams County Winery. They have concerts (inside and outside) depending on the weather. DH & I went there last year for our 1 year anniversary and I *might have* gotten a little tipsy over the wine tasting AND the bottle of wine that we drank outside with the block of cheese & crackers that we bought there. I swear it was a whole block of cheese that we ate! And I never eat that much cheese. I told him next time, we're bringing a picnic instead of the cheese wedge.
I work right in downtown York, so DH and I go sometimes. It's very cool, and often there is a theme. For instance, I think it was in August, they had a pet themed one. Everyone brought their dogs, and all the vendors had treats for the dogs and water bowls set out.
