A glittertini, a twilight stroll and freedom on a farm
Three days in Atlanta was enough. I missed good ole Bucks. And my groundhogs. I’ve reached the level of obsession where I’m basically a Disney princess (while looking like the Hunchback) talking to my backyard pets.
Anyway, I’m back just in time for the weekend. Which means it’s time for both of us to get off the couch. Your cushions had a good run. It’s time to go remember what real life humans look like.
Pride with a side of martini
This Saturday, East State Street hands the keys over to PrideFest, turning Doylestown into one giant block party. Cars are out, community is in.
Expect street vendors, drag performances and enough good vibes to power the borough for a week. Bars are also battling it out in a Pride drink competition, which feels like the kind of civic engagement I can get behind. Grab a drink and join the party. Tutu recommended but not required.
The original golden hour
The longest day of the year deserves better than a late night phone scroll (not that I’m judging). Head to Peace Valley Nature Center Sunday evening for some ancient traditions we used to rely on before Netflix existed.
You’ll get a guided dusk walk by the lake, stories under the stars and an excellent opportunity to pretend you’re much more outdoorsy than you actually are.
Good vibes on the farm
Still Rise Farms is hosting its Juneteenth gathering on Friday, bringing together culture, music and community. Think less ‘giant festival’ and more ‘meaningful community gathering’.
It’s spread out across the scenic fields, with an open mic for local voices and a marketplace packed with regional creators. Rain or shine, the celebration is on.
You know you live in a great place when you’re excited to come home from a trip. Only in Bucks can your options include a Pride martini, a sunset nature walk and a farm celebration of freedom.
Hope you have a great weekend and take a minute to appreciate the beauty that is Bucks!
May your martini be glitter rimmed,
Cait, From Bucks
