Anyone else make it to the Bruno Mars concert this week?
Our faithful COO spent Tuesday night sitting through a two hour rain delay, which is a great reminder that Mother Nature doesn’t care about our plans.
Also, whoever decided concerts should go past 11pm clearly hates the 40+ crowd.
Here’s hoping the weather cooperates a little better this holiday weekend.
Doylestown is going medieval
Apparently, Doylestown decided it needed swords, jousting and people in medieval clothing.
The inaugural Bucks County Renaissance Faire takes over the grounds around the Moravian Pottery & Tile Works this weekend. With live performances, armored combat, equestrian shows, artisans, games, food and five stages of entertainment.
Basically, it’s a chance to spend Saturday pretending you’ve wandered into a fantasy novel.
And yes, I fully expect at least one person to take the medieval part way too seriously.
Art, cider & an orchard
Here’s the “wait…how did I not know about this?” event of the weekend.
After a seven year hiatus, Art in the Orchard is back at Manoff Market, bringing 50 local artists together for a weekend of art, music, cider and general orchard wandering.
It’s outdoors and the agenda is essentially: Look at pretty things → drink cider → look at more pretty things.
Frankly, that’s a pretty solid Saturday.
Go earlier in the day if you actually want to browse the artists instead of doing that awkward shoulder-to-shoulder shuffle where you pretend you can see a painting from six feet away.
One last summer hurrah
Summer officially sticks around until September 22. But emotionally? Labor Day weekend is the finale.
Shady Brook Farm is sending it off with the final Summer unWINEd weekend. So, live music, food, drinks and plenty of outdoor hangout time.
Friday gets things rolling, then Saturday brings the full send-off with fireworks and The Loop (band).
Because apparently the appropriate way to process the end of summer is wine + live music + things exploding in the sky. I don’t make the rules.
It’s time to stay out past 9 p.m. one more time. Though your body may disagree.
Carry a sword, look at some art, watch fireworks. What a weekend. I convince myself every single week that this is the best place to live in the world.
Whatever you end up doing, enjoy it! I’ll see you Sunday for the slow down.
May your body forgive you for staying out late,
Cait, From Bucks
