Whispering Beard Folk Festival, y'all!

as i've mentioned before (and before again), our friends have an amazing band called 

Arlo McKinley & The Lonesome Sound. this weekend, we were lucky enough to be invited to go see them perform at the Whispering Beard Folk Festival. i had never heard of it before, but i'm so glad we went! just a field full of hippie musicians with so much soul in their music. we camped out with the band (in the most horrid heat known to man) and even got wrist bands to go backstage to help them set up and snap some photos. (the saying "i'm with the band" ran through my mind about ten times!) we danced along to the music until about 4 o clock this morning! my body is dead but i'm so glad we took this trip. always great to end the summer with one last music festival!!
